Hi, I'm new in the Audi world. Just bought a TT 3.2 2004.
I need some advice on failing xenon... Let me explain.

When I turn on the headlights, both xenon come on but after a few minutes, the passenger side shuts off... If I turn the switch off than on, they both come on but again after a few minutes, the same xenon shuts off... turn the switch off then on they come on etc....

I've already swapped the ballasts with no change...

Can it be the bulb? Or a relay?

Any help will be much appreciated.

Thanks

Have you swapped the bulbs left to right and see if the failure moves with it?

Thanks for the reply!

The bulb was my next suspect... Didn't do it yet becausw swapping the bulbs on the 3.2 seems to be a bit of a problem. Not shure if I can do it without removing the front bumper cover? How about the headlight relays? Would that be a possibility? If they are more accessible, maybe I could start there? Any idea where they are located?

Thanks for your help.

Not that it's impossible, but I'd be surprised if taking out the headlights require the removal of the bumper... On my A4 I need to remove my headlight housings first before getting to the bulbs.

Sorry I can't be more helpful: I don't know where things are on the TT, unfortunately.
