I have a similar problem with my 2006 Audi A6 3.0 TDI. For some reason, the front wheels go way down and it can't lift it back up in once. What I understood, is that the green light means, the car is way to low, and the yellow one means that it stopped working. Sometimes I have to turn off the engine, and turn the car back on for like 5 times, and it goes back up. Today, I finally left my car at the local service, so we'll see what happens.
Can You tell if You know what happens ? I have that same problem today. I was towing an empty trailer today and I didn't disable "Towing Mode" from OFF > ON . The back of the car sat down and won't go up. yellow and green suspension lights are on
@@ivoparlov1190 Hi there. Well, one of the valves at the front right wheel was faulty and it was releasing air. Because of this the compressor was running all the time and it wore out (not sure if it is the right expression for it). Anyway, changed the front valve, refurbished the compressor and it was all good till now. However, the same thing happened again . Now it happened the second time, but once it lifts up the front, it stays up for weeks. I'm going to refurbish all 4 now and hopefully i can forget about this stupidity once and for all. Cheers
You need to turn on your car. Let it run, then Go to or press "Setup". Then press Vehicle jack "off". Then you will see your car rise back up. HOPE I HELPED!

I have the exact same problem, but also what i think is the compressor is making alot of noise, and I get a weird smell as well. Did any of you find out what it was?
From your failt messages it looks like problem is isolated around the solenoid valve (not sure how many there are) which controls the airlevel of the suspensions. Did you encounter problems with the body of the car sinking to a lower level during the night prior to this problem? I did.
Espen Torlei Olsen I have a 2014 Q7 and my compressor got replaced due to some fault , mainly due to the noise which it started while lifting the suspension of the vehicle from lower levels. The Audi guys replaced with new two solenoid compressor and the noise is still coming while lifting. He even showed other q7 they are quiet a bit. The guy saying "as u got two solenoid(the latest one), its making little more noise. No need to worry about that. He replaced that through warranty and so I want confirm from u, that while lifting the vehicle from dynamic, does the compressor make sound? Please observe precisely, from q7 or the vehicle u have and let me know please, just now I got it, that's why. He even explained well and showed me the old compressor with my chasis number. So, can u clear my doubt?
Hallo ich habe gleiche Probleme ich weiß nicht was soll ich machen:( ich war bei paar Mekanic aber keine weiß was soll machen. Soll ich die Compressor wechseln?
Hi wondering if anyone could help me , i have a 58 audi 4.2l v8 , so few months back i had both green and orange lights on the dash, checked it over on friends plug in computer showing overheating of the compressor , further inspection found valve block was leaking which caused the compressor to burn out so i had both replaced, everythings been fine for months then suddenly get in the car on the morning for work and i have a constant orange flashing light ,car is still raised no uneven leveling, but the compressor dusnt even start up no noise anything so i checked 40amp fuse under seat that seems fine and i changed the relay just incase that had blown when i did that the compressor started and worked fine so i screwed all the dash back up wer the relay is housed and turned car off came back to it no more than 20 mins later and the orange light is flashing again 😖. Any ideas as what it could be ?
My cars starter motor has gone and car is not starting and I had to jack the front up to check the starter motor but not my cars green suspension has come on the rear lifts up fine front is sat down. I hope when I start it the suspension works fine.
My light keeps flashing and it's stuck in automatic on the settings and lift, offroad, comfort and dynamic are greyed out? Does anyone know what that means. Really hoping it's not going to cost a fortune
