I'm not sure what to sell it for. I guess I would sell it all as a package for around $700. That's the compressor, both front air springs and shocks as well as the rear air springs. The rear shock are worn out but none of the air springs leak.
Let me know if you are interested.

A lot of people in this forum have been critic of me because I defend the air suspension. One thing I can tell you about the spring replacement is that your car will sag with weight (all spring suspension cars do fully loaded) whereas air spring suspension adjusts itself to the load of the car. Besides having the benefit to adjust ride height.
Its an allroad, keep it that way.

You can also buy replacement parts for the air suspension from aftermarket vendors for 1/2 the Audi price, or less. For one thing, the OEM Audi air pump is a bit of a joke, and the aftermarket pump is far more durable.

Front Suspension Supposed to "Settle"? by beeyayitch

I wrecked my 02 2.7L Allroad. The front would no longer pump up. The shop replaced the shocks. No it pumps up, but it still flattens all the way out in the front so the fenders rest seemingly on TOP of the tires. The import dude told me he thought it should "settle" like this. Sounds like baloney. Is it supposed to "settle"?

No, he is talking rubbish - the distance between the wheel and the rim should be the same around the car - and even on the lowest setting it wont be anywhere near resting on the wheel!

Suspension problems, Allroad 2,7 T 2001. by pyramus

I have problems raising the suspension from level 1 to a higher level. on my Allroad 2,7T 01. I have replaced the air springs in the front. When using VAG-COM, I get a fault code, 01770, which indicates a problem with the thermal sensor in the compressor. It is impossible to buy this sensor, as it is an integral part of the compressor. Arnott is selling this compressor. But in the instruction manual from Arnott, they use the old thermal sensor on the new compressor. In other words, how do I fix this problem ?

Hi Duck,
 
Thanks for the tip. I called Arnott and thet said "we were waiting for you to call" They offered free replacement parts but no $ towards installation. If they knew the parts were bad why didn't they call me??
 
The thud is gone with the new parts.

Hi Art65,
Was it just the rear suspension that was making the noise?
