Before purchasing a compressor, please consider the following:
The main reason a compressor fails is because there is a leak in the system.
This causes the compressor to run for too long, which leads to compressor burnout.
The most common cause of a leak in the system is an old leaky air spring / strut.
The compressor warranty will be void if this fault persists

DANGER:
Installation and removal by workshops is usually carried out according to AUDI specifications.
The bumper is also removed.
This leads to enormous costs due to 6 hours of assembly.
At AUDI approx. 1300,- € just for installation and removal.
Please note that we will not be liable for any claims for this type of installation or removal.

Your advantage:

- Personal advice
- As a German provider, we have the European right of withdrawal
- In addition, you have a 2-year warranty
- All shipping methods available
- We have the longest experience in Europe with air suspension for automobiles in the aftermarket

Our technical advice for air supply:
1. Increased running noise of the compressor is often caused by a suspension that is no longer functioning.
Be sure to also change the suspension rubbers and springs.
2. A porous intake hose is often the cause of compressor failure.
Change this and, if possible, the filter/silencer at the same time.
We don’t want the new compressor to fail prematurely for this reason.
3. Replace the operating relay before installing the compressor, even if it still appears to be functional.
This is also a mandatory requirement of the car manufacturer.
Make sure you are changing the correct relay. Relays are similar. There is a high risk of changing the wrong relay.
4. After the repair, make sure that the system is absolutely leak-proof.
The easiest way to determine this is to park the vehicle and wait for the system to automatically adjust (if your vehicle has this feature). Measure and record all air-assisted heights from the ground to the bottom edge of the fender. Check and compare these heights the next day.
Even a small deviation in the distances will cause damage to the compressor and the valves in the long term.

If you have been driving with a leaky chassis for some time, it is likely that the compressor is running more often than normal. This increased number of on and off cycles may have damaged the compressor. Depending on how long this condition has been going on, you should replace the relay as a precaution and check the compressor's performance. A compressor should not run for longer than 20 to 30 seconds after the car has been standing overnight until the system is ready to start again.
