Look up Haldex failure on this forum

loads of advise

Like DEL80Y said - you need to service Haldex - rear differential - clear the metal mesh and replace oil in the pump section. 

There is the rear Haldex Servicing.  That is at 3 years / 30,000 miles or sooner.

so on a 2014 car should have been done twice by now. maybe even 3 times.

 

The rear diff might at some point benefit from an oil change.

Just be sure nobody is mixing up the drain holes of the Haldex and the rear diff. So they need to know their holes....

Sounds like a Haldex fault, if you have an OBD device you can plug in and get any codes for the all wheel drive system.

The Haldex Repairs website gives you chapter and verse on the codes and issues.

I had the pump fail on mine despite Skoda servicing to the book - they don't change the removable filter that they claim doesn't exist resulting in the pump burning out.

I now take mine to an independent with Haldex experience and service every 2 years or 20,000 miles to try and head off any further trouble....

Cheers
