I did some suspension work on my 05 a8 and it seemed fine for a little while we had warm weather but now it got colder and I noticed that either in the morning or when the car sits for a little, the passenger side drops and driver side stays normal. As soon as I turn the car on, the compressor kicks in and its good to go in 10 seconds. What could be the problem?
Also, the compressor seems to be working a lot. It turns on, turns off, and I hear some air come out. It does this often while driving. And when I shut it off, it lets some air out but the car is still level.

Get a spray bottle with soapy water and go to town. It could be as simple as a leaky connection with the air hose. Have the car running and move it throughout all of it's settings while you spray and look for bubbles. Start with the suspect strut first and work your way around.
