Default Xenon or Halogen?

Hi Guys, I am new to Audis and need your help identifying headlight type. Is it xenon or halogen? Thanks for your help

I think it's halogen but I could be wrong. I believe the Xenon headlamps were gray on the inside. I have Xenon and mine are gray on the inside.

My Xenon's look like that, turn em on, if they seem to flicker like a fluorescent and are blue-ish, they are Xenon. If they come on like your high beams (Which are Halogen), which seem to fade on and off, and are Yellowish, they are Halogen.

Also, Xenons are *instant* off, Halogens seem to fade off.

The easiest way to tell if you're actually looking at the car is to turn them on. You should also pop the hood and look inside.
