Haldex Awd interchange

[woah4]

Hey everyone,

I have a 2005 V70 Awd I picked up for peanuts because the awd is not working, I throws a "traction control service" fault upon start up, and drives totally fine in fwd. I was told by the Previous owner that the haldex module got moisture in it and needs replacement, but that the pump is supposedly fine. What is the interchangability of the haldex modules between different cars? I would love to go through zemodex and replace the module and pump, but at the price point I will have to wait until next year as a minimum and I could really use the awd now. The PO also told me that he inquired about getting this module repaired and was told they could not repair it due to the water entry, although I am not sure if it was zemodex he talked to or how true that was. Am I smart to just do the full replacement or might it be worth my time and a little bit of money to throw a second hand module at it maybe even if just for this winter to get me through? 

Thanks,

Billy

I have never personally done it, but I understand it can be done. Would be wise to pull the pressure sensor from the donor unit too as there were two different varieties available.

Great, I appreciate the advice, I'll be sure to do that if I try it.
