Filter Dilemma

Hi folks, any help with this is greatly appreciated. I have a Mk2 Tdi quattro, any thoughts on frequency of air filter and fuel filter replacement. The car does about 5k miles a year and both filters were done 2 years ago. Also the haldex coupling is on my mind to do too as I can't see any evidence of a service. The car has 96k miles on it. Many thanks

Hi, Haldex oil & filter should be first on your list. Audi will tell you there is no filter to replace but there is.
A VAG indy will normally do the job correctly.
if you have receipts for the other 2, the fuel filter will be O.K for many years, but replacing the air & pollen filter is recommended.
Hoggy. :)

There's actually two filters on the Gen2 and Gen4; a cartridge for the Haldex and a litte plastic filter screen that goes on the end of the pump. Both of these are overlooked since Audi removed them from the Service Schedule.
