The Tiguan was serviced today by my son who is a tech for another brand and we decided to have a look at the Haldex pump filter to see how much debris it had on it and it did have some so it was worth the look. We buy VW genuine parts at cost and the oil and o'rings to do the pump service cost the thick end of $200 so be warned if you ask for it to be done as VW do not include the item in any scheduled service. My car has only done 50K and it gets driven mostly on open highways and I was surprised at how much Haldex clutch material was on the filter. I am going to see if the O'rings can be supplied from a bearing supplier I know as they were $75 for two! If the filter gets blocked their is no indication of it and the pump I believe then needs replacing.
