....... sure you all no what i mean if u have anything 05.5 -07........
when the hell are they gonna recall thoese lights... thats more of a safe t hazzard then anything........ everytime i go to the dealeship they wanna run that program (whatver they told me).. that would help /fix./////////no!.............like 45$. or 150$.... i did it once and i guess they just smacked the bumper with there hands a couple times cuz it did nothing..... so i no better than to do it again....... why no recall?

 

It took a little bit of back and forth with my dealership, but I was able to get both of my headlight assemblies completely replaced as part of the warranty to fix my flicker problem (and it was only occurring in my driver's side headlight). It's been over a year and no flickering.

 

Wow, it's not just me. lol. Side note one just went out. I wonder if that is covered under my CPO or if i'm on my own.

 

You are on your own. My Stealer charged $800.00 to "Fix" the problem, and a year later they are doing it again. Claimed he replaced the bulbs and that it need to have the headlight re-aimed. Found out later that that happen automatically.

I really think it is just a loose connection, and plan to horse around with it this weekend. The bulbs are supposed to last 10X longer than halogen bulbs. I don't think mine were changed, I think they just went in a cleaned the connections at the bulb.

 

thats crazy im not paying anything like that... but i did hear something bout a recal set for late summer

 

are we talking lights flickering when stationary or only when going over bumps? My 2008 2.0 TDI flickers when on a rough road but not at any other time

 

Nick:

I am talking about a flicker that happens usually upon acceleration, but sometimes on a rough road.

The "wiggle" at idle seems normal

 

Not really what im talkin about is on the early b7s........... they flicker left and right and dip all the time.......then u go and pay for ballast and other crap that does nothing.. but fix it for a month.. or so or pay to have the whole headlight replaced which is a rip..................

 

I have a 2005.5 and have been experiencing the same thing with my driver’s side headlight. It flickers intermittently. Sometimes the light will go out and I'll get the dipped headlight routine. If I turn the lights off for a few seconds and back on its fine. What's strange is that I can go for a few days with no issues. I reported this to NHTSA because it’s definitely a safety issue. I'm hoping this will result in a recall. If anyone is interested you can file a report on line at http://www.nhtsa.gov. Since my car is not under warranty the dealer wants $500 just to replace the blubs. If it’s the control module they want over $900. Ouch!

 

i have xenons and the DRL or xenons don't flicker.
