Thank you for making this video. Audi wanted $1200 for 2 bulbs and fitting. Instead I was able to replace the bulbs using your video and amazon for $250

Mate thank you so much for posting this. I had a go bought two bulbs for £21.99 a set of Torx screwdrivers £12.99 and used my phone to guide me using your video. Worked perfectly total cost £34.98 and 20 minutes. After doing the job I called my local Audi dealership to quote me to supply and fit. D3S bulb £205 and one hour labor £180 total cost £385. Thank you again.

Thanks jdb, your video was clear...concise...and damn cost-effective. You gave me the confidence to do it. I did it in 30 minutes including cleaning the surrounding areas under the hood with some goo gone. I bought a 2-bulb pack for $35 and used just one. In the end you saved me $300 on my 2015 Q3. I can't thank you enough for taking the time to help me and others. Keep up the great work!

Thanks a heap mate, saved me a bunch of cash. You're guide made it really easy to do, I changed both lights with the second one only taking 5 minutes to complete. The Indooropilly Audi dealership in Brisbane quoted $800 to change just one bulb! They made up some BS that they would need to take the bumper off etc. If I wanted to do it myself, they were happy to sell the me just the globe for $580. Really unbelievable since we just bought them online for less than $100 each. Cheers again

Exactly why I made the video. Had exactly the same problem as you and I just refused to pay audi the extortion they wanted to change a simple $100 light bulb. So I thought I’d work it out, post a video and hopefully others find it and save themselves some money. It is ridiculous what audi wants for a 10 minute job with a part that they probably buy wholesale for less than $10

My audi dealer wanted $1100 for parts and labour on replacing this light bulb. Thanks to you, I was able to do it myself. What amazed me is that the original bulb is already shattered to pieces while installed. Considering that is the 3rd time I had light bulb issue within last 3 years (and twice that the light issue happened right after a service), I almost suspect the bulb wasn't installed correctly to start with.

Thank you so much for this video. It was a tremendous help and gave me the confidence to do this job on my own. Just a note, some users may run into slight differences. For instance, screws instead of clips and the bulb inserts a little differently. I have a 2016 Q3 Quatto, the North American version, and these are some of the slight differences. It's nothing that stands in the way of an easy DIY job, though. Thank you for the help.

Hey mate, good tutorial. Did your globe die or start to flicker? My right headlight has started to flicker and the halo light isn’t as bright as the left halo when I turn the headlights off. I’m not sure if I should replace the globe or take it to an auto electrician.
@jaydeebee2511
@jaydeebee2511 5 жыл бұрын
Mine were totally blown and dead. Flickering would suggest driver problem. But I’m no electrician. Cheapest way to tell would be eaither swap both bulbs round. If the swapped one still flickers, and the alternate light works on the other side I reckon you need an electrician. If no flicker on the original side when swapped problem is the globes driver.

Guys, I've replaced on my 2015 audi Q3 the bulb lights. The original Philips was 12V 25W and when I bought the new ones, I've found a noname brand with 12V 35W. Do you believe is it ok to have 35W instead of 25W? Is it going to burn the fuse in the long run or something else? Thanks a lot to who can answer. Happy New Year and thanks for this video!!

Yes all. All the same lamp is made by Philip’s for other cars but slightly different housing. First time I bought just d3s. But the last numbers made a difference. The globe I was given was for GM. Same globe but with different numbers at the end had a different housing for Audi. They are pretty easy to find on ebay. Very common.
