The all-wheel drive control unit is bolted directly to
the housing of the Haldex clutch.
It forms one unit made up of the control valve, a
pressure/temperature sensor, and a control
module. It receives signals from the PCM and from
the ABS control module via the CAN data bus. The
control module in the control unit uses these
signals to determine the fluid pressure that is
needed to actuate the clutch plates depending on
the requirement. This determines how much torque
should be transmitted to the rear wheels. All-wheel
drive is deactivated if a fault occurs in the all-wheel
drive control unit.
A preload of approx. 80 Nm is always present at
the Haldex clutch. The temperature sensor of the Haldex clutch is
installed near the control valve in the control unit
and is surrounded by the hydraulic fluid. The
temperature is transmitted to the control module
and is used for adaptation to the changing viscosity
of the hydraulic fluid. If the hydraulic fluid is cold,
the control valve has to be opened slightly more
than requested. This allowance has to be reduced
as the temperature increases. The normal working
temperature of the hydraulic fluid is between +40
°C and +60 °C. If the temperature rises above 100
°C, the clutch is depressurised; if the temperature
falls below 95 °C, the clutch is pressurised again.
All-wheel drive is deactivated and a diagnostic
trouble code set if a fault occurs in the temperature
sensor.
With Haldex Generations I and II, the control valve
was actuated via a stepper motor. With Haldex
Generation III, the stepper motor has been omitted.
The control valve is now actuated via a solenoid
valve. The solenoid valve is actuated by the control
module in the all-wheel drive control unit by means
of pulse width modulation. The pulse width
modulation determines the position of the
adjustment spindle and thus the opening cross
section of the return hole. This is how the pressure
at the working piston of the plates is determined.
If the return hole is fully closed, maximum pressure
is applied to the plates. If the return hole is fully
open, the plates are unpressurized.
Electric feed pump
The electric feed pump is installed in the clutch
unit. It works according to the gerotor principle.
The main purpose of the feed pump is to fill the
pressure accumulator and the space behind the
pump plunger with hydraulic fluid, thereby ensuring
a fast response time of the Haldex clutch. The feed
pump used in the third generation is designed to
achieve an even higher pressure than the base
pressure of 4 bar. It is supplied with current by the
control module in the all-wheel drive control unit
when the engine is running above approx. 400 rpm.

Drive
The hydraulic fluid is drawn from the sump of the
hydraulic system and directed through a filter. The
feed pump pressurises the system and pumps
hydraulic fluid into the pump plungers. This base
pressure of 4 bar presses the rollers for the pump
plungers against the cam disc. At the same time,
hydraulic fluid flows into the working piston. This
eliminates the play in the clutch plates. The Haldex
clutch can respond quickly and distribute the torque
within fractions of a second. The spring force in
the pressure accumulator determines the base pressure of 4 bar and compensates pressure
fluctuations. A compensating spring works in the
opposite direction and prevents the plate discs
becoming blocked by the force of the working
piston. This restricts the transferable torque to
approx. 7 Nm. This value can, however, deviate
slightly due to temperature and/or the difference
in speed between the input and output shafts.

Drive
To ensure very fast torque transmission, a higher
voltage is applied to the electric feed pump and
the control valve fully closed before the shaft-driven
pump is brought into operation. As a result, the
maximum pressure is raised above the base
pressure, and a torque of up to 80 Nm applied to
the multi-plate clutch. This achieves significantly
faster pressure build-up than with older systems (second generation). To protect the pump from
overloading, the pressure is restricted to approx.
10 bar by the pressure relief valve. The hydraulic
fluid flows back into the sump via the pressure
accumulator.

Drive
The pump plungers generate the operating
pressure that is controlled by the control valve as
a function of the difference in speed between the
input and output shafts. The control valve works
progressively from fully open to fully closed. The
fluid pressure can be approx. 67 bar when the
control valve is fully open. The maximum pressure is mechanically controlled by means of the
pressure relief valve.

The electric feed pump is an axial piston pump
which is more robustly designed than the gerotor
pump in the 3rd generation Haldex. The higher
feed pressure means that the ring piston pump at
the clutch plate assembly, the pressure relief
valves, preload valve and the high pressure valves
are no longer necessary.
The pressure accumulator on the 4th generation
Haldex is larger and is designed for the higher
pressure. The 4th generation Haldex has a larger fluid filter
which contains a non-return valve.
The all-wheel drive control unit no longer contains
a pressure sensor in the 4th generation Haldex.

Full torque is available at any time on the 4th
generation Haldex clutch because the pressure is
not dependent on the difference in the speeds of
rotation. This is used for instance to activate the
Haldex clutch for better traction when moving off.
On the 4th generation Haldex clutch, the preload
function which applied 80 Nm to the plates in the
3rd generation is no longer required.
On request from the control unit and at engine
speeds above 400 rpm, the electric feed pump runs
and maintains the storage pressure at about 30
bar.
A pressure reducing valve acts as a control valve,
allowing the all-wheel drive control unit to control
the pressure with much greater precision. The
all-wheel drive control unit monitors the position and function of the control valve. The control valve
distributes the pressure, depending on the
requirements, across its three outlet openings
(storage pressure, working pressure, return).
From the storage pressure (30 bar) and depending
on the requirements, the control valve regulates a
working pressure of 0 - 17 bar, which is applied to
the ring piston. At 17 bar working pressure, the
maximum torque of 1000 Nm is transferred to the
rear wheels. The all-wheel drive control unit
ensures the best possible performance under all
driving conditions, for all road conditions and
independent of the speed.
