From Haldex point of view there is no need to exchange the oil or filter. There is no need for any preventive maintenance on the unit during the life of the vehicle.
Well, I guess this is what it really come down to, "the life of the vehicle". The maximum warranty period is 100K miles, the owner's manual service recommend service intervals up to 150K. I think that's the service life of the vehicle, 100-150K.
If you want to keep your vehicle for 100-150K and then put it to pasture, then by all means that service schedule will probably work just fine.
Since you've already had communication with them, if you want to send them those pictures of mine at 90K, feel free. I'd be interested in their response, and if they feel that fluid/filter is in acceptable condition.
