Description of the problem | Audi a4 (2005) - audi is apparently aware of the problem with the "dipped headlights" in their vehicles, but will not offer a fix to owners. If one does an internet search you can find literally dozens of sites dedicated to this issue and people trying to get a resolution. This problem causes one or both of the hid headlights to flicker and go out while driving and repeats even when the lights are turned off and back on again. Aside from it being a safety issue, it's also causing owners in the form of driving violations, etc... And yet audi usa refuses to address this well known issue. |
