I have changed the haldex filter in 2 VW Tiguan's that I own. Both time I spent ages trying to fit the white nylon bush to no avail! Even tried to use a G clap to force it in. But it wouldn't fit! I ended up refitting the old nylon bung in each case. Now I know why!!!!!! Both cars are 14 years old now and destined to be traded in but in future I will remember to order the genuine parts!
100% they do not. No Gen 4 filter comes with a spring. Only Gen 2 and 3 come with a spring. You are probably being sold a copy filter under the pretence it is a proper one.
For example, if you google the Volvo part number 31325173 and look at the images, all ones in volvo branded bags do not have a spring. Like wise if you find any photos of a Genuine ford branded 1673828 part that has no spring, and lastly Land Rover genuine branded boxed ones LR032298..... 100% if it has a spring in a Gen 4 Haldex filter it is a china copy part.

Very insightful Matt. Buy cheap , buy more than twice !!
We all do it, me including. But you get what you pay for more often than not.

Yes! The copy ones are too big. Total nightmare.
Will a chinese filter with a faulty valve give a transmission fault warning.
All the gen 4 (genuine) I've used have a spring
