    On Board Tool Kit (Air Compressor)

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    I Recently picked up my 2012 Q7 (CPO) and wanted to go over tire changing with my wife yesterday. I was given a quick rundown at the dealer and didn't really focus in on possible missing items. We have the inflatable spare and I currently do not have an Air Compressor. Is this item / tool a standard feature or an upgrade/ add on?

    The only thing I can find is the kit contents for the on board tools found in the Owners Manual pg 295.

    Kit Includes:
    -Hook for removing wheel covers
    -Plastic hook for removing wheel bolt covers
    -Wheel bolt wrench
    -Alignment pin for changing wheels
    -Screw driver with reversible blade - (Also missing)
    -10/13 Open ended wrench
    -Towing eye

    On the following page in the Owners Manual (pg 296) it references the Air Compressor. Looking in the trunk/ spare tire area of my Q7...there is no Air Compressor.

    Can someone shed some light on this so I can either go back to the dealer and ask for a replacement of buy one out of pocket?

    Thanks!

    Air compressor should be included as standard. Otherwise how you suppose to inflate spare wheel?
    For missing screw driver please check wheel bolt wrench. On the longer end please check for plastic cap. Pull it out, this is the screw driver.

    Thanks for the quick reply Zwierzakfm. I totally spaced on the screwdriver, thanks for calling me an idiot nicely. HA! I'll head back to the dealership and request an Air Compressor with holder.

    Air Compressor
    Part Number: 8P0012615A

    Air Compressor Holder
    Part Number: 4L0012109A

    **Update - I ordered both the Air compressor and holder from Genuine Audi Parts (GAP) of San Diego. Received an email back that the Compressor holder does not apply to my VIN. Looking back at my spare tire compartment, I believe the Air Compressor will fit in the left hand side slot / cubby. No big deal, just giving an update for future searchers.**

    Hi all, sorry to revive an old thread, but is the compressor falls under Audi plus warranty? Mine is not working today when I want to inflate the normal tire. And it has not been used since new. 2014 production car here.
