For your safety, we recommend that you hove your autho
rized Audi dealer replace burned out bulbs for you.
It is becoming increasingly more and more difficult to replace veh icle
light bu lbs since in many cases, other parts of the car must first be
removed before you are able to get to the bulb. This applies especially
to the light bulbs in the front of your car which you can only reach
through the engine compartment.
•
Sheet metal and bu lb holders can have sharp edges that can cause
serious cuts, and parts must be correctly taken apart and then prop- .,
