okay so if it looks like those, then then you have halogen headlights with an aftermarket HID kit. The issue is most likely the kit.

buy a new HID kit or put H7 halogen bulbs back in. Problem solved.

 

Ok well finnaly got around to take pictures. While i was at it i put the ballast all the way at the bottem and i wrapped them up good with rubber tape (1/8th thick) Still the problem occurs. Heres some pics.

 

Confirmed: you have DS1 xenon headlights. They are single xenon, auto leveling.

the owner of your car must have been a real clown because he got rid of the proper ballasts and bulbs.

The proper valeo ballast is supposed to seal up the big opening in the bottom of the headlight. Halogen headlights do not have a hole in the bottom here.

Do you have condensation issues every time it rains?

Do you have dipped headlight errors?



You need two of these ballasts

Audi B6 A4 Quattro 1.8T > Lighting > Headlights > ES#251855 Audi B6 D1S Hid Ballast - 3D0907391B

two of these bulbs.

Audi B6 A4 Quattro 1.8T > Lighting > Headlights > ES#5862 Xenon Headlight Bulb - Priced Each - N10566101

its expensive but thats what should have came with your car in the first place. This will solve your problem.

 

I really appreciate your help. Thanks alot, but 1 last question. Can i get the ballast you have? I would like to keep the HID'S without the headache and if getting better quality HID'S would help, i would rather get thoes then spend 1 grand +.

 

You could just disconnect everything from that HID kit and just buy a DDM or VVME HID kit, since they are very inexpensive and work great considering the price. just a suggestion.

 

what he said. Except you may run into the same problem you had before and you will have a giant hole in the bottom of your headlights making you prone to condensation everytime it rains.

 

Hmm so not a guaranteed fix. I dont get condensation, and no dipped light bulb error. Thanks guys for helping. If anyone else is looking at this thread and needs some more help here : Getting ESP, ABS, and flashing brake light error after HID install [Archive] - AudiForums.com
Ill research around and see if those kits have the same problem. Thanks again a4rob, helped me once again. And MapleSyrup

 

no problem and I can tell you that I have DDM tuning kit and I dont have that problem.

 

Thank you, same headlights?

 

no like i said before, I feel like I repeat myself all the time in this thread, I have halogen headlights.

if I had your headlights I would be running OEM ballasts and bulbs.
