Default Haldex clutch fluid & filter change... Must this be done at an Audi Dealer?

What type of lubricant is it?
Where is the Haldex filter located? What does it look like?

...or is there a DIN specification number for it?

Default Find a local that has the wrench or buy it from Steve and do it yourself

Every 20K this pays for itself after the first change.

Its a VERY easy DIY... I thought my first time was easier than an oil change to be honest
