I have yes, and although I can't remember the exact fault codes, there were 2:

Inside the car the MMI has blanked off the LIFT & DYNAMIC settings and only allows Auto or comfort to be selected, although whichever you select, nothing changes in the suspension, no softness in comfort-still feels like a bag of bones.

I hope replacing the compressor is an easy job-because I am going to replace it on my own.

Does anyone know whether it needs configuring with the car???

Many Thanks

Bex
