The Electronic Control Unit (ECU), integrated into the housing of the Haldex LSC, has been developed and designed by Haldex and Siemens VDO Automotive. The ECU is designed and produced to endure the rough environments to which the drive-train is constantly subjected, including vibrations and thermal variations. Click to enlargeECU Data Infineon C167CS 16 bit RISC Controller CPU clock 20 MHz 256 kB flash memory The ECU controls a valve which directs the torque transfer characteristics, ranging from fully open to fully closed. The open position is used during ABS operation and when Stability Control Systems are activated. The valve opens in less the 60 ms. The closed position is used when accelerating and driving on soft ground. The software program determines the control of the coupling. It comprises two main parts: base software and application software. Click to enlargeThe base software controls the internal functions of the Haldex LSC. One example is compensating for the variations in the viscosity of the oil, within the operating temperature. The application software communicates with other active systems in the vehicle via a data bus. It determines the vehicle state with the help of the read signals. Examples of received signals are: engine torque, engine revs and wheel speeds. From this estimated vehicle state, the optimum torque distribution is determined in each condition. If the input signals are lost due to a failure in another ECU, the Haldex LSC enters a limp home mode, maintaining AWD. Every vehicle has its own requirement specification profile. This specification leads to different calibrations of the Haldex LSC. A multiple set of parameters are available in the software itself. Online, the application software will determine which set to use in the actual vehicle, e.g. estate or sports saloon. no worries have some more info if you like http://www.corradosyncro.co.uk

i agree i remember being caught out will check mine tonight

bit long but interesting Before delving too deeply into 4MOTION, understand that there are two different versions, one for VW models equipped with longitudinal drivetrains, such as the Phaeton and Touareg, and another for those VW models with transverse engines, including Jetta and Passat. Phaeton and Touareg models use a Torsen center differential to control and deliver power to all four wheels. However, the transverse drivers are equipped with a high-performance Haldex clutch at the rear axle to accomplish the same task. And it is the latter system that we will concentrate on here. This is actually the second-generation 4MOTION; an earlier version was introduced on the Golf in some markets (but not the U.S.) in 1998. This new-generation all-wheel-drive system has been improved in many aspects. For example, the Haldex clutch unit mounted directly on the rear axle is now significantly more compact. The most important technical element of 4MOTION is the latest generation wet-running (oil bath) Haldex multi-disc clutch. Compared to a straightforward mechanical Torsen

hi be carefull where you put tap for ecu signal i had to add this on my 16v turbo running s2 manifold and thottle i will check if it needs to go just before or just after butterfly in thottle as i got it wrong first and it ran super rich like a pig

hi dude torque settings erm bearings 1st undersize + any useful bits i have a v.a.g service book for a g60 (engine and digi 1) and that was well helpful when i built my last couple of g60s ordered h-beam and W

hi does any one know where to get or have got a v.a.g service book like one below but not in german for the abf 16v engine need some specs thanks will buy borrow steal lol

hi any one know or have one of these covering the abf 16v engine need some specs will buy borrow steal etc lol in english would be good

droppd block off to middlesex reboring couldnt belive just round the corner lol

started striping abf today was happy when took off head very good nick no cracks and standard bore to play with does anyone no of good engineering firms in north london/west london the guy i use is very busy at the moment

cool will try to get some pics in car through window etc i do need to do some thing with carpet but apart from that it sits right on top of where the old changer fits it has a laser cut bottom that fits right over old changer housing cheers

hi will take some more pics in car cae pics on my site can supply them as you can see in pic above it is totally in line with steering wheel and perfect height as for throw will measure but its not alot and you feel as if you are changing the gear from in side box the only way i can explain it is like when you change gear using you hand on a gearbox. will try to take a vid and post on utube i love it have had all sorts of quick shifts home made bought etc and nothing comes even close no play at all totally solid cheers corradosyncro.co.uk

cool flusted how do you get your bumper to fit ? or you using after market grp? http://www.corradosyncro.co.uk

hi all this started out as a 16v turbo technics car, then the old injection system gave up so i had a load of bits from a g60 about so what started as a quick change over ended up being about 3 mths of work the engine in this one is 1.8 kr 16v forged pistons kr rods yet to break out and leave confines of block !! metal three layer gasket arp studs lightened flywheel baffle sump g60 idle valve 440cc injectors aeromotive rising rate fuel regulator aeroquip fittings twin areoquip oil coolers with fitings, themostat oil housing i made a stainless steel fuel rail digi 1 g60 ecu loom audi s2 shorthened maifold,and thottle body biggest intercooler i could find with was proper git to get in all sfs silicone pipe relocated battery to where rear seat would be got a optima red top varoius other bits and bobs oh and of course blood sweat and tears inovate motorsports wideband LM1 o2 with logworks and if any one is stuck who is local i dont mind for bit of petrol will bring it over and plug it in there car, you will need bung in exhaust !! the c.a.e shifter i can came from http://www.cae-racing.de it was about 809,00euros plus 100 euro for stainless race cables heres a pic of engine now just going to start making it a bit pretty and of build half way in

hi thought i would pop some pics up

here is pic of abf lump that i got last nite was advertised as just block and head for £100 but got a few bits more than I EXPECTED !! so i have few bits i dont need air con pump for 1 complete inlet manifold and injector thottle body etc 16v mk3 golf gti gearbox let me no if anyone interested will start big strip down tomorrow will post some pics of turbo build if anyone interested cheers corradosyncro

hi my abf is work in progress im building it for the new corrado 4wd project that im getting into abf im going all out on will dig out what parts i have and list spec pics all ready done a kr turbo in my other corrado quite good results i use that daliy http://www.corradosyncro.co.uk there are 2 abf blocks (bare) on ebay item number 260207726585 and 260207727790 cheers paul half way through build 1.8 turbo digi 1 about 1bar boost

hi all im having some a lightweight pulley set made for my abf turbo wondered if other 16v drivers would be intrested in light weight pulleys for say kr 9a abf etc will post prieces and pics when i get mine they are are being made by a company that supplys part tor WRC F1 M.O.D etc so should be good

i have a 02m with mounts on in the garage will take some pics this weekend vortex link http://forums.vwvortex.com/zerothread?id=2633108

no worries i have mounts that you can copy etc are you wanting to use 6speed r32 box for future 4wd conversion or just a fwd box 6speed does not make huge different just the drivers shaft will be shorter forgot to mention the down pipe will need some magic doing to it etc thanks paul

hi R32 02m 6speed , flywheel, clutch, starter, slave line, shifter & cables off of 24v r32 maybe audi tt 3.2 but not checked Modified front mount Custom axles 24V 02m slave cylinder line (you can't just connect your existing slave line to the o2m.) Flywheel to crank and clutch bolts (24v o2m) Don't forget to get the harness/plugs for gearbox speed sensor and reverse light i can get the drive shafts made for you custom you would need o2m inner cvs and your vr6 outs can be used but i would replace with new for peace of mind im getting 2 sets of front shafts price at the moment if i was to add another set maybe cheaper i can also supply the o2m gearbox mount , i do have a front gearbox mount that i can take some pics of and you can copy are you wanting to run 4wd eg r32 setup ? or do front then do rear later as i have some parts to help with this eg beam,syncro floor etc you could run gearbox on its own without prop etc i no some one who did this for 2 mths with out probs http://www.corradosyncro.co.uk

Hi I am starting a site for 4wd corrado very basic early days at the moment if you would like your car featured please send a email ? phattyvr6 is onboard retroracer (canada) as well http://www.corradosyncro.co.uk Cheers paul i will advertise the the corrado forum on my site cheers
