XC Haldex vs. Viscous Coupling V70-XC70

posted by  someone claiming to be cbe_steve on  Wed Sep 15 08:21 CST 2004 [RELATED]

hi,
there have been no real mechanical failures do far with the new haldex system i would definitly go for it.
however the main advantage of the new electronic centre diff over the old viscous coupling is the performance. the old system took a lot of wheelspin from the front before the back would even start to have drive, where as the new systems reacts instantly and is variable in how much power is transferred at any point in time.

steve.
