LEFT OR RIGHT XENON HID HEADLIGHT FLICKERS AND GOES OUT, DASHBOARD WARNING SAYS "XX HEADLIGHT DIPPED" (XX= LEFT OR RIGHT, DEPENDING ON SITUATION).

ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS OVER THE LAST TWO YEARS THE LEFT AND RIGHT HEADLIGHTS GO OUT AND A "DIPPED HEADLIGHT" WARNING LIGHT SHOWS UP ON THE DASH. TURNING THE HEADLIGHTS OFF THEN BACK ON WILL BRING THEM BACK ON MOMENTARILY UNTIL A VIBRATION KNOCKS THEM OUT AGAIN. IT'S USUALLY ONE SIDE OR THE OTHER BUT SOMETIMES BOTH LIGHTS GO OUT AT THE SAME TIME. NO FAULT CODES ARE STORED WHEN THIS HAPPENS. *TR
LEFT HEADLIGHT FLICKERS AND THEN GOES OUT RANDOMLY ON MY 2006 AUDI A4 WHILE I AM DRIVING. THIS HAPPENS ALMOST DAILY. THE CONSEQUENCE IS THAT YOU ARE DRIVING WITHOUT A HEADLIGHT. TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM, YOU HAVE TO TURN THE HEADLIGHT SWITCH OFF AND THEN BACK ON AGAIN. TO DO THIS, YOU HAVE TO STOP THE CAR SO WHEN YOU TURN THE HEADLIGHTS OFF TO RESET THE LEFT LIGHT, YOU WON'T BE DRIVING WITHOUT HEADLIGHT. SOMETIMES THE LIGHT WILL GO OUT AGAIN WITHIN A FEW MINUTES AND SOMETIMES IT IS OK. *TR
