I just purchased an '07 A8 SWB model with 4.2 V8 and 55K on it. Love the car. Owned three Audi's in the late '80's and early 90's (including a 5 speed V8 Quattro).

I have one maintenance issue that I must address immediately so this car will pass state inspection. The front lighting for the car has 2 "projector" type lens/reflectors on each side. The outer one is high and low HID. The inner has a single halogen daytime running light in the center, and an "odd" light bulb near the perimeter. On the driver's side, it is at about the 1 or 2 o'clock position. It comes on when the headlights are turned on, but produces only a small amount of light, as the HID's are the real light source.

THAT "odd" bulb on the driver's side is burned out and needs replacing. Can anyone tell me what the bulb number is? The passenger side is fine, and is a halogen bulb as well. I just need to know the H number of this bulb so I can purchase a replacement before I dis-assemble that lighting module.

THANKS for any help, and for the postings regarding care and maintenance I've already found on this site.

I've finally found info on this light. It apparently is called a "city light", and is incandescent not halogen. Got a pair of them today at Pep Boys (Sylvania 2825 LL) for $5.00

Posting this in case someone in the future has a need for identification.

Now for installation!!
