Eat this 2 Posted September 9, 2009 Report Share Posted September 9, 2009 i know you can get a manual haldex controller that fits in a din slot but where do you get them from and how much are they?? Link to post Share on other sites
legvw 0 Posted September 9, 2009 Report Share Posted September 9, 2009 I think that dutchdub were building them, but they ran into a few problems while they were testing them, but i'm not too sure how they stand atm. Think they were selling them for about 700 euro's! Link to post Share on other sites
Eat this 2 Posted September 9, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 9, 2009 yeh iv found em they are indeed 700 euros any idea what that is in £? Link to post Share on other sites
legvw 0 Posted September 9, 2009 Report Share Posted September 9, 2009 £614.74 mate, google will convert currency. You thinking of getting 1 of them then? Link to post Share on other sites

legvw 0 Posted September 9, 2009 Report Share Posted September 9, 2009 Why not just use a manual controller, its just a knob that controls how much fluid passes through, bolts on where the haldex controller would? Link to post Share on other sites
bungy 2 Posted September 10, 2009 Report Share Posted September 10, 2009 I saw one of these manual controllers fitted to a TT and looked straight forward enough. What sort of money are these? Link to post Share on other sites

bungy 2 Posted September 13, 2009 Report Share Posted September 13, 2009 I did read it but maybe I didn't explain myself. The controller for the din slot is 700 euro's but how much is the control Vv version that sits on the Haldex? Link to post Share on other sites

legvw 0 Posted September 13, 2009 Report Share Posted September 13, 2009 I think a company called sqs made 1 that bolts direct to the haldex http://www.sqsracing.com/kategorie-produktu/29:haldex-control-4wd-4x4-vw-awd Link to post Share on other sites

Eat this 2 Posted September 13, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 13, 2009 mhrb sound exactly the right thing for me by the looks of it its simply a potentiometer to manually set the haldex diff on off or anywhere in between i THINK itl leave the rear diff engaged under braking to making it permanent 4wd if you want it the mhrb disconnects the rear diff if yu pull the handbrake http://www.sqsracing.com/files/fs_files/productdetails/406/assembly-manual-mhr-mhrb_47.pdf Link to post Share on other sites

john555 0 Posted September 15, 2009 Report Share Posted September 15, 2009 if you own a mk4 can you not get the ones like the lads on the r32oc run with a in cabin knob which is switchable from normal to fwd to race?will the sqs ones not mean you loose traction control also you loose all saftey features like the temp shut off you cant run 50/50 all the time with these as it would mean locking the rear diff meaning it would skip around corners check out vwsyncro.co.uk they have a thread about controllers i would say the sqs one are only any good for race track use Link to post Share on other sites
john555 0 Posted September 15, 2009 Report Share Posted September 15, 2009 this is the best 100% standalone controller iv found but not realy nessisary for the mk4 boys http://www.4motioncontroller.com/shop/products.php?version2&cPath=1_2 heres a link for the vw syncro threadhttp://vwsyncro.co.uk/data/forums/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=2241just read the knob is only sutable for gen 2 haldex systems ie mk5 sorry my mistake Link to post Share on other sites
