    Haldex pre pump help please

    When I turn the ignition on you can hear the pump whirring, however it kind of unevenly pulses rather than a constant whirr. I'm having problems with my haldex at the moment, something that a new controller did not fix so I am trying to find a different solution to the problem. Thanks for...
