Air suspension compressor / valve block replacement Audi Q7 (Part - 1 of 2)

This video documents how I replaced the air suspension compressor and valve block on my Audi Q7. I am not a mechanic and I take no responsibility for any damage or injury caused by anyone attempting this procedure. Remember, if your unsure it's best to let the professionals do the work. Thanks very much for watching.

I am dealing with a similar issue. Fuses are all fine, compressor kicks on, sprayed the solenoid with soapy water....no leaks. Im at a loss.

[@bumbleshufflesdiy5908]

Have you checked / listened at the four strutts for air leaks?
Also, is it possible that the compressor is running but not working effectively (I.e. Not pumping air due to worn out seals on the piston ring even though its running)?

[@bumbleshufflesdiy5908]

Also, in my part 2 video you will see that there is a black air line running from the compressor to the top left of the valve block. Is it possible that there is either a leak on this line or a leak where it connects into the compressor (on the front wheel side of the compressor)?

@@bumbleshufflesdiy5908 I rechecked each tire, solenoid, and all around the compressor, I think the compressor is not working effectively like you suggested. Thanks for the help.

@@withYOUin no problem at all. When I dismantled my compressor the inside piston was in bad shape. I think mine had been pumping away with a bad seal and subsequently overheated and self destructed. Ps a new compressor from aerosus without bracket is only £252 at present. Massive saving if doing it DIY.

I put a new compressor in and viola! Car came to life and immediately started raising back up. However, now the right side of the car is in Lift mode ~500mm, and the left side is sitting close to Dynamic 420mm. I have tried re leveling using VCDS and it fails every time. Bled front axle and rear axle, but the right side still sits higher Im stuck, not sure what to do...
