Re: DRL dead
I don't know why it took 10 months, I was waiting for it. This morning driving side DRL went.
Going in Wed morning.
Anything I should tell them or I should know?
Should I force them to change the other side just in case?

Re: DRL dead
I had the same problem when my Q5 was 8 months old, took it to Autohaus Agincourt and they changed the module on BOTH sides. I'd assume that they know they have to do both. Good Luck.

Re: DRL dead
Thank you for the Advice. I will make sure I ask them to change both. Going back and forth isn't ideal. 8 month's I've had this car already been down there 6 times for various issues (excluding oil change). All minor issues though but still irritating.

Re: DRL dead
When my passenger DRL went out, I only had that module replaced and ended up going back again after a month or so for the driver side. I did read on the audiworld forums to make sure to replace both sides since the fault was tracked and the newer modules are updated.

Re: DRL dead
Thank you sir. Point well taken. I will make sure they take both. I need to discontinue my monthly Audi trips. I like the place an all but this is getting too much 
. Thanks everyone. I'll keep you posted later this week.

Re: DRL dead
So far there is the:
1) DRL
2) Engine mis-fire
3) Lose head light bulb
4) Head light condensation
5) Whining noise in steering wheel.
I am hoping to address 1 and 2 together this week (both known problem so should be easy)
Number 3 was pure bad luck they fixed it.
Number 4 was so strange, it happened hours after I picked up the car, they fixed it.
Number 5 well no a big deal but the noise was in fact there and they fixed it.
There is also the known issues where the steering wheel vibrates (sometimes) when the car is still and when you turn it. Audi said this is a known issues but no solution yet.
