Air supply unit

The air supply unit is installed at the front left of the engine compartment. This prevents any
impairment of the acoustics in the passenger compartment. Furthermore, more effective cool-
ing can be achieved. This increases the amount of time the compressor can be switched on,
and thus the quality of control.
Design:
The air supply unit is the same as the one
used in the allroad quattro (see SSP 243).
