So I got lucky and didn't have to wait the two weeks. Apparently they had the part in stock for another customer who had the same problem but that customer was out of town for a month so they fixed my car first. Got it done on Thursday, all is well again!

Awesome, glad to hear.

Weird.........my best friends A-6 and my 2010 Q-5 both had the DRL passenger side go out in the same week! Off to service where they admit it's a known issue.

Did you get the DRL LED fixed as yet?

flightmedic

Yep........in and out in 30 mins all is good now. The service guy said it's a known issue but easier to fix on the Q5 vs my friends 2010 A-6 which took 2.5 hrs.

Glad it was nice and quick.

It would appear so........my impression was alot of owners were coming by for the fix.

I don't think the actual LED light is being replaced. Seeing how they did this in 30 minutes, I think it's either a fuse or a bad socket. To change the LED's the entire light bulb housing needs to be removed which requires bumper removal which takes at least 1-1.5 hours. But I am glad to hear it's a quick and easy fix.
