Unfortunately there is no such thing as a cheap fix for the suspension system on these.Probably find that the air pump has failed due to a leak in one or more of the airbag turrets.Take a look herewww.arnottindustries.com/part_AUDI_y**17.html

hi all. had a tinker with the allroad today and noticed the compressor doesnt activate at all. i put a 12v feed straight to the compressor, took the pipe off that feeds the relay valve and its blowing out plenty of air. the relay valve also doent seem to be doing anything. im thinking theres ever a fault with the suspension level control module or the relay valve, any ideas? cheers, matthew
