A8parts should have a D3 compressor floating about as well. Does the whole car sag, or just one corner?
The whole car has gone stiff now, I think you may be right. I have bought a new compressor, when I fit it I will have a look to see if I can find any holes/splits in the hoses etc.

That is what I thought too, and almost hoping for.

Does anyone know whether I have to code the compressor to the car once fitted or will the car recognise it and sort the coding?
