Hi,
We have a 2005 XC70 with a Generation 2 Haldex that has suddenly started losing fluid. On inspection it appears that a core plug in the cast casing has rusted through. We’ve attempted to seal this using ‘chemical metal’ epoxy but to no avail; fluid continues to seep. Please see photo attached.
My next idea is to try and measure the diameter of the core plug and obtain a replacement and see if on removing the DEM it is possible to dig out the old plug and drive in a replacement?
The alternative is to obtain another AOC and do a strip-down and swap?

Any thoughts on how much work it is to carry out such a task? Has anyone ever attempted a DIY strip-down of this unit?

Out local garage/service station has no experience of these..

Thanks,
Bill
