Audi headlight faults we fix

LED drivers, daytime running light strips and leveling motors sit inside or on an Audi headlight, so one failed part takes the whole unit out of service.

  • LED low or high beam out, flickering or showing a lamp warning
  • DRL strip that dims, turns yellow or goes dark on one side
  • Leveling faults and range control warnings on the dash
  • Moisture behind the lens, a cracked lens or broken tabs

Your model may have its own page: Audi Q5 Headlight Repair, Audi Q7 Headlight Repair and Audi A4 Headlight Repair (B9 Matrix LED).

Headlight range control defective: what the warning means

The Audi headlight range control defective message means the automatic leveling system has found a fault. The cause can be the leveling motor or module inside the headlight, a ride height sensor or the wiring.

Only the first is a headlight repair, as is Audi adaptive headlight repair on cars whose lights swivel. Send the exact message and any codes, and your quote says whether the headlight is the cause.

When the daytime running light goes dark or turns yellow

Audi DRL repair means replacing the LED strip or its driver inside the headlight. That requires opening and resealing the housing, so dealers usually replace the complete headlight.

LED repairs on any make are covered in LED Headlight Repair.

All daytime running light faults: DRL Repair (Daytime Running Lights).

Keep the original Audi headlight

An Audi LED or Matrix headlight is matched to the car: its beam, its light signature and the headlight on the other side.

Repair keeps the original unit, its fit and its electronics, while a replacement headlight may need coding after it is installed. There is no part to order and wait for.

You send photos, approve a written quote, ship the headlight and get it back repaired, as explained in How Mail-In Headlight Repair Works. We confirm the turnaround time in your quote.

Questions from Audi owners

My Audi headlight warning light is on, but the headlight still works. Can it be repaired?

Often, yes. A warning with the light still on usually points to one LED section, a driver or the leveling system. Your quote confirms what can be repaired.

Do you polish yellowed Audi lenses?

No. We do not polish or sand lenses. A cracked or damaged lens can be replaced as part of a repair.
