Checking function of Haldex coupling
–  Drive front wheels of vehicle onto rolling road.
  WARNING
Keep the area in front of the vehicle clear. Carry out test with care to avoid damage.
–  Engage 1st gear and slowly start driving.
l  If the vehicle is not pushed off the rolling road at an engine speed of 1500 rpm, then the Haldex coupling is defective.
  Note
t  When the front wheels are driven whilst the rear wheels are stationary, the Haldex coupling will lock up. This means that the rear wheels are also driven.
t  The Haldex coupling can accept differing speeds for a short period without locking up only with 1st gear engaged and engine speed slightly above idling speed.
