| So to answer the ops question wind up is not an issue as the haldex would disengage in any mode before the trans was loaded up. |

Gen 3 pre-MY09, Gen 4 MY09 onwards.
The Haldex will still lock up in M&R on the road, working to the same parameters as it would off-road (as it doesn't know what surface it's on). At higher sp ... |

Exactly so the haldex would not lock up in m+r on the road as it would not need to?
As soon the control unit felt that wind up/conditions etc did not need the haldex clutch to engage then it wouldn ... |

Don't think it's a problem as the diffs don't physically lock on the freely as I understand it.
I could be wrong though? |

I would prefer an oem screen obviously, but if the pattern part does the job then I'm not to bothered.
Why autoglass are still trying to fit these not fit for purpose screen's is beyond me!

Thanks for the quick replies.
Looked as though a trim was not refitted but if yours is the same.
You would never notice the gap unless you were looking for it or working in that area. |

Glad to have helped.
Maybe like you say it is an age/wear related issue?
At least it's a cheap and an easy fix! |

Auto levelling should be a legal requirment and will/should get picked up on an MOT in my opinion.
Lots of people seem to do it with no issues.
