It needs a proper audi specialist or audi is module correct one for car

 

Some faults can cause other faults to seem present when there not.

Hi the LED units are hell and have to go through rigorous tests by the light control module to be accepted as there is no real manual adjustment its all fly by wire, thats why they cost three times as much new, only other question is the unit O.E. Genuine if not the only way is get a can bus bridge cable which fools the light module into thinking its the original unit.

Hi much as I loath to say this it sounds like a dealer/IDOS job as this system runs a diagnostic and then tells the idiot running it how to step by step repair it, all part of the new A.I. strategy, I am assuming you won't be paying for the trip to Audi.

Hi the only benefit from what they have done so far is the car milage isn't going up but that won't help you with the loss of your vehicle.
