2015 Audi s3 prestige
My haldex was completely not working, I knew this by doing a launch and taking a slow-mo vid. After the technicians replaced the pump and the oil, they noted that the oil had little shimmering pieces of metal in it. The shop I took it to does specialize in Audis, but they might not know too much about the 8V S3 specifically. Since the old pump was completely not working, are those metal shavings expected? The haldex is now working with the new pump, but they told me I should be driving hard on it at all since some metal coupling on the haldex system itself is where the metal shavings are coming from. Should I be worried?
