    my dads '05 envoy did that accept it did not say dipped headlight and it turned out tthat the ecu had to be reprogramed because when the emmisions air pump clicked on, it drew too much power when it first turned on and that headlgiths flickered. i realize that audi and gmc are two completely different cars but it may help you

    most likely your bulb.....easiest way to check is to swap them side to side..and if it doesnt change then you swap the igniters......is your car still under warranty?....bulbs are covered on 05s

    You mean the Audi Assured warranty? I don't think so. You can ask your service rep at your local Audi dealership to be sure.

    Any idea what the part number is for the bulb and the igniter? The "DIPPED HEADLIGHT" warning just came up for me last night when I was making a sharp right onto an on-ramp.

    Thanks!
