Pump bought from aerosus Germany...arrived in 3 days...

Use a good jack to gain good height access and obviously a few axle stands...take your time it's relatively straight forward...change the relay aswell in the rear right arch area...

One comes with the pump but it looks a poor copy...audio main dealers sell them.

[Gary Pike]

Many thanks..... Is the relay in the rear arch or in the boot

[Audi dan]

Yes ...in the boot on your right ..if you remove the shrouding /netting with a flat blade or even a two pence twist it 90 degrees and it pulls out. The holding plastic screw is up on the top ..inside above the netting .. if you feel for it you'll find the securing screw .

Relay is 644

Be aware the pump is controlled by an orange 40a fuse it's in a bank of 4 to the right of the relay...check theses as one may be blown...you may be fortunate it may be a knackered relay .

The actual pump is covered by a moulded shroud just behind the spare wheel carrier underneath the car.
