DRC transfer valves gone?

Post by tartan_rob » Thu Dec 24, 2009 2:44 pm

Anyone had these go? WHat symptoms did they have?

Audi seem to think these have gone or got stuck and not the shockers buggered.

Both mine 'went' according to Audi.Dropped all the pressure with the car bouncing around everywhere.Turned out one had leaked out and the other was seized.Makes for interesting driving! Can't complain as Audi replaced the whole lot for free.

Audi changing the valves FOC. They were changed last April. The shockers are "breathing" within tolerance....
