You might even be able to get better highway gas mileage if you only had to drive 2 wheels. In fact, I actually think the newer generations of Haldex AWD are cockpit switchable, with a race (more RWD), normal (more FWD), and even a FWD only mode to use on the highway.

You are right- I was mistaken- it goes FWD w/o the fuse. I mentioned this to Terry and he said they would take a look at it. Best if more xi guys w/ JB emailed him to let him know we want this.
