2005 Audi A4 Exterior Lighting Problems, Complaints and Defects

Issue ID	786818
Internal NHTSA #	10327747

Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	The left headlight of my 2006 audi a4 quattro has this annoying -- and dangerous -- problem: 1. The left headlight flickers 2. It then turns itself off 3. The message "left dipped headlight" appears 4. The message is changed to a sign indicating that the lightbulb has failed. If i turn the light off (note: we're talking about driving at night here) and turn it back on again, the light will become normal again, for about a few minutes and then the cycle repeats itself. This problem is intermittent. It has been occurring a lot recently with the cold weather. I can't tell for sure whether it is temperature related. My audi dealer said that audi knows about this problem but doesn't know how to fix it -- changing the light bulb doesn't solve the problem.
