Without a doubt, the right thing to do and looking at the state of the pump filter, you can see why these pumps fail. Am I right in thinking that Haldex 5 doesn't have a separate filter ?

If not already done, I would change the gearbox fluid now with that mileage on.

A bit spent now can save a fortune later.

On my 07 XC90, I've just done Haldex + filter ( to the same extent as you) then rear diff oil. angle gear oil and several gearbox sump dumps.

Each one of them was filthy.
