Hoping someone can help,it's a longshot. Even the dealership seems to be at a a loss.

The compressor runs. eventually the green and yellow lights start to flash. Error code 01575 - Controller Switched off is thrown.

The shop I took it to claims to have tried the adaptation procedure and got no response from the car.

The dealership has done nothing yet but read the codes, and listen to the compressor run. When tehy learned that I replaced the compressor myself they immediately suggested that we put a new compressor on.

I asked them if a bad compressor was a known cause of 01575, and it is not. In fact they have never seen a car with that error. So it seems to me that they don't have any idea what is wrong, and are just going to throw parts at it until they get a clue.

Shouldn't the Audi Service department have access to more experienced technicians, some kind of hotline they can call for assistance when they don't have a clue?

Is there a way to determine if the compressor is good or bad?

thanks
