snowplow

Greetings all at Briskoda, The name is Jack and I am driving a 2010 Octavia Scout 2.0 Tdi. I have 3 small issues that could be interrelated and I would appreciate some advise on how to resolve them. 1. It seems to me that after this winters heavy snow driving the Haldex has become excited / faulty and seems to engaged for only a moment when the vehicle takes a sharp corner on a paved / tarred surface. I have noticed this more and more now. It does this mainly on a left turn and can be felt by a small thrust sensation with a slight jerk. 2. I have also noticed a small clanking noise originating from the clutch when depressed on an incline when ready to stop at a traffic light or parking. 3. While cruising on the high way at +-100mph and the accelerator is depressed there is a slight churning noise coming from either the gear box or clutch. Any thoughts would be much appreciated on how I should go about bringing this to the attention of the dealer as the vehicle is till under guarantee but don't wish to be brushed off without being taken seriously. I am fairly mechanically minded having restored and currently drive and maintain a Land Rover series IIA Diesel 88 so do know enough to realise that something is on the brew. Looking forward to your thoughts. Kind regards Jack
