Description of the problem | I have the dipped headlight problem in my 2009 audi a4/b7 driver-side headlight. I have my lights set to always be on. Every now and then i'll see the light flicker or go out and get the dipped headlight warning. What i do is turn my lights fully off, leave them off for a few seconds, and then switch them back on. This seems to fix the problem. Until now the headlight completely goes out with only the (dipped headlight) warning on my dashboard. This is a recall worthy problem as i have searched the internet with no luck only more victims who have to drive with malfunctioning headlights. |
