Yes, haldex and rear differential. Just waiting to hear from Skoda, and yes most probably need to find a mechanic

Complete rear differential at dealership. Complete price without vat and labor is 4K€. Complete work should be around 6k. Their wrote to Skoda to see if they will do some discount. Maintenance always done on dealership but to be honest I don’t known how often they changed the haldex oil. PS: Skoda do not authorize to replace just the pump (that now seems fine). They have to order the complete part.

Unfortunatelly, rear diferential mnight be broken. Finnally made the test on Haldex pump, and to my eyes (seem from faulty videos on YT) mine seems to be ok. https://youtu.be/hXHKcDRKvp4 Cannot believe I will have to spend 6k€ to replace the all thing :-(

I went for a ride and its worse than before. Under heavy acceleration rear seems to be stuck every,5 second. But rolling its completely fine.. I checked the details on service invoice and they changed haldex oil. Could the pump or the controller do this? I just don’t want to replace the complete differential 😧

Just to add that the noise is really worse when turning the wheel to either side. Not sure if turning makes more traction to back wheels.

Thanks I will definitely check that..

Haldex oil is the same as diferential oil? They told me they change the oil and it came out clean. Not sure about pump filter.

I have the same problem on my Kodiaq 4x4 manual gears. It’s was always 1st 2nd gear a feeling of rear right wheel kind of stuck. This was barely noticed unless you were seated in the back. Car went for regular maintenance where they changed the diferencial oil, and it was really bad. It would do the same but blocking more and clearly noticed when accelerating. They made several tests. Removed the transmission spindle and come to conclusion that complete diferencial has to be replaced. Is there something else (like) sensor that could be faulty? They said oil came out clean, and I cannot understand how the differential would be broken or worn.
