Hi Kosta,

 Just a quick mail to confirm your rolling road day coming up this Saturday the 19th .

 I know that you specifically asked about Haldex 1 boxes on Audi’s. Historically i have had no problems with them, however, late last week i had one that would not run. I don’t want your people to be disappointed after driving all the way down here, so i thought that i would let you know- now that i have experience of them not running properly on the dyno i thought i had better tell you. I suppose this means that we cant be certain that Haldex 1 cars will run, so please advise the people planning to run accordingly.

 Thanks a lot,

 Ben.

Had mine done yesterday, was estimating and hoping for around 300, put a guess at 290 to be safe, spot on at 290bhp and 350ft./lb. Would have come to this but Guildford is far too much of a trek for me, lol, have fun.

It is not a definitive no it won't run. It's the only one he had ever had problems with. Kudos for him mailing me and letting me know..I would imagine if you run and it doesn't work then you will have no charge.

There's a couple of things to try including pulling the fuse on the Haldex system so it runs in 2wd only. It really depends on the type of 4wd RR they use. Some can take the Haldex and others can't. Bit of a lottery really. We can give it a try though and see.

I don't want to run in 2wd if I can help it as I won't get an accurate figure (due to the silly way the Haldex works :rolleyes:)
 
Idle seems normal, just a bit up and down. It doesn't do it all the time either.

My idle from a cold start is normally very good due to the fact I remapped it to a performance calibration (which sorts out the dodgy idle among other things).

I can't afford to fix it right now, so it'll have to wait! Maybe the RR people will have a code reader they could plug in for me :p
 
I'm definatly attending with a mate, he'll be with me rather than bringing his own car.

Aiming to leave at around half 6-7 so should get there around 9am.

Anyone passing by Northampton at all on there way down that fancies convoying.

Will be leaving at some point during the day so he can take a look at a bike in west sussex though.
