Hi

It turns out one of the compressors mounts had come off due to corrosion.
All it needed was a plate riveted back on using 4 rivets. So I presume this could be quite a common fault. If you took it to an Audi garage they would probably replace it costing about 1000 UK pounds when it should cost about 50 UK pounds.

Locate the compressor and see it moves about, if so you probably have the same problem.

Cheers

Mark
