    4M Q7 - Yellow DRL

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    My wife's 2018 Q7 has had a burnt DRL on the drivers side for about 2 years now and I'm exploring replacing it if I can find a used headlight assembly at a decent price. Does anyone know what causes the LED to burn and turn yellow? I would like to prevent it from happening again (if possible) or is it just luck of the draw with the quality of the part? I was also wondering if there is any way to adjust the brightness of the DRL using VCDS.

    The LED's can be replaced cheap if you're willing. You don't have to take the housing apart to only change the LED's. I bought the LED set for mine but haven't gotten around to doing it yet.

    Oh cool thanks I had seen the part you linked but assumed the glass had to be removed & didn’t want to deal with that. Im gonna have to read through the Audi world thread and see what this job entails.
