Hi! Hopefully everyone has a good day. So my Audi A6 Le Mans, 2.7 Diesel, 2007 started to make a weird sound today. It’s hard to explain the sound, maybe grinding? The sound comes on only when I accelerate aggressively and stops when I ether let the accelerator pedal off or I maintain a specific speed. The sound comes on with a slight vibration throughout a whole car. Sounds like the weird sound comes from passenger side, but hard to say if it’s under the hood or wheels. Also- sometimes car works perfectly, sometimes the weird sound and vibration comes on, so it’s not consistent. Car works fine- no power loss or anything like that. I added to videos- I hope you can hear the sound. P.s. I know for a fact that driver side bearing is worn out, because it’s already making sound so that needs to be changed. But can it make an extra sound+vibration only when accelerating? IMG_1735.MOV IMG_1736.MOV

So update to my car: Took it to garage- both rear coil springs were dead so they changed both of them. The only thing is now- I’m pretty Sure my model, which is Le Mans, has to be lower than this, but the guy at the garage said these were the springs they gave him in the auto part shop for this model. I don’t know- googled it and it looks too high for Le Mans model.

A dead compressor actually sounds about right. Do you know by any chance if A6 S-Line 2007, LeMans, 2.7L saloon come with rear air suspension? Front has a normal spring suspension but havent had a chance yet to life the car up to check the back.

Hey! Any ideas why rear of my car has dropped/lowered down? Could both springs be dead at the same time? Both sides of the rear of the car have lowered evenly. Used to be able to put 2 fingers between the car and a tyre, where now I can’t get anything between them.
