I started driving to work this morning when the tpms light shone up and I got the dreaded 'ding' noise... I restarted the car as thought this might make it go away, but alas it came back. I checked the tires after work, and noticed some posts about trying to wheel spin to see if the haldex was faulty. Tires pumped (33f 26r) and a quick, but longer than expected wheel spin later and I've had to book her in - lets hope it is just the pump and lets hope its good will as it's already been replaced once!

Anybody know how much a haldex pump & labour might be ?

Cheers

Tpms is purely for tyres its quite good id suggest you have another look at them you also need to reset the sensors after you did the pressures

TPMS can be all kinds of things, including faulty sensors (which I had recently on my S8). You should be able to try and reset it via the MMI before you spend any money. It can take a while for it to pick up the sensor readings. Try that first.

Yeah, tried all of the above after doing some reading on the tt forum..checked the pressures , when it span and no haldex I figured it was a bit more than the tpms..
