Evening thread followers!
Just a quick update been in London all day and need to turn the laptop off and chill! I couldn't live there.... a day is enough, I had a cabbie who drove like a nutter, so much so I asked him if I had to pay extra for the experience
I'll find the link to the parts site I found and post it up.
Basically I managed to get in touch with an Audi dealer in NI who according to the site had two of the parts in stock (right part number too). After trading a few emails with the parts chap at the dealership (who was very helpful) they offered to ship the new OEM Audi Compressor for £960 all in with delivery.
So, I finally ordered the part this morning and I am hoping it will be delivered to my officed tommorrow for fitting over the weekend
. After considering all the options and some good advice from Bex (thanks again) I went for the security of the OEM part and the 2 year peace of mind warranty which applies throughout the UK and I have asked the dealer to add the reg and Chassis number of my car to the invoice as advised by my local Audi parts chap.
Still think the price is OTT for what it is though but I need it fixed and don't want to have to keep one eye on the warning light every journey!
Now all I need to do is fit the damn thing, with some pointers from Bex.
I'll let you know how things progress and I am looking forward to washing two weeks worth of dust and sh*te of the A8 and using it again. After this weekend
Cheers
Glyn
