Thanks! When yours had similar problems, were the symptoms exactly the same? I'm hoping to avoid replacing the whole compressor if it's just a wiring issue. Did you check the sensors or just the compressor?

Yeah, pretty much identical symptoms. Error message, leaning. I fiddled with the connections hoping for a quick fix, but ended up taking it to the shop. Turned out to be a corroded connector like I said. Saved me from buying a new compressor, which would've been way more expensive. I would advise you to do the same.

Great, that's really helpful! I followed your advice and took it to a workshop. They found the defective plug connection just as we suspected. The repair ended up costing me around 95€, so a big win. Appreciate the help!

Sounds familiar. I had something similar happen with my 301. Check the connections to the compressor itself. Could be a loose plug or corroded pins. Also, have you checked the ride height sensors? Sometimes they can cause weird issues if they're not reading correctly.
