Default OK, what's the scoop on Haldex fluid change?

I can't get my owners manual right now, but I think I'm getting doubletalk by the dealer.

For a <b>2002</b> TT, 225, is there a Haldex change due at 20,000 miles?

Is it covered by the factory maintenance program?

I bought mine with 29,000 miles on it; and Rockville Audi says that the service was never done, and it is not covered.

I'll do it myself (seems easy enough), but I don't want to do it if Audi is supposed to do it for me.

Default It was on the service invoice...

but we all know how much that means. I think I've seen the black plastic replacement filter rather than the metal one that supposedly initially comes from the factory when I've been under there, but I'll know for sure when I change it this week.

Default Audi should do it...>

As it part of the 20K maintenance schedule.

When and if you want to do it yourself, check out the H-Wrench for filter removal. An instructional .PDF is linked off this page...<ul><li><a href="http://www.modshack.info/Haldex.htm">http://www.modshack.info/Haldex.htm</a</li></ul>

Default Audi did mine under the warranty service @ 20K and 40K....

I just ordered the fluid and filter through ECS for my 60K service which I will have done with the timing belt.
