Default Headlight help please.

So i've been reading forums all day and night and keep finding posts of the headlight flicker issue. However I have not found one stead fast repair for this problem. Something somewhere saying if you have headlight flicker or dipped light.... Do this.

So, Please if anyone has experience with this please help me out. I told my local dealership while getting my 45,000 mile inspection that my right headlight keeps flickering and going out on me (even got pulled over) They said it just needed to be replaced, charged me about $125 and sent me on my way.. Week later, flicker flicker.

Thanks again for any help.

Some have had bulbs, and or ballast replaced, and the problem returns. For others, replacing one or the other takes care of the problem.
