Been over enthusiastic with the jet wash lately? Getting water in the headlight controllers did this for me.

 

I do get it washed at a local car wash and they do use jet washes! So the controllers can they be replaced and what sort of cost is it to repair ?

My Xenons and leds still work fine with no issues and self level fine too.

 

Controllers are about £40 each and easypeasy to swap. Where are you based? I can't see profiles properly on this app

 

Based in reading , sorry to sound a bit naive but is it the controllers that are stopping the Xenons moving right to left ??

 

I believe so. I had the same symptoms. Everything but the movement worked and I had an error on the dash. Replacing controllers fixed it. Does it tell you which side or just in general?

 

No it doesn’t say which side , just in general

 

Hmm that's why I asked where you were. If you were local I'd swap my controllers temporarily to check if that was the problem for you. Might be worth pulling them out at least to check if they look corroded, mine were dreadful

 

Driving home on Friday night and all of a sudden the error message went out and the adaptive Xenons starting working again but then stopped working yesterday ?!?

But today they are working again ? I am going to have to get it checked out as it may be a loose connection somewhere.

But having a good look around I can’t see any water in the lights etc so I don’t think it could be the jet wash.

 

Could still be corrosion, so now you have a dicky connection. Worth disconnecting everything you can find and clean the connectors. Then cover with some sillicon grease when you reconnect.

 

On my case (B8.5) it was the right H7 bulb for cornering light. It is in the headlight near the xenon bulb. You have to delete the error in VCDS after renew the H7 bulb. I suggest to change both of them.

 

Gave it to Audi as had a leak from the headlight washers too, long story but when I had my mot done on 21-11-17 by them, I asked them to unblock my washer jets. Soon after I develop this leak. They stated that it has nothing to do with them, so a big complaint has gone into Audi uk and awaiting reply.

Cost of headlight washer jet leak £289. They also found fault with adaptive lights it was the G78 level sensor on osf light, cost to fix £309.

I’ll await for Audi uk to reply to see if there will be a goodwill gesture , if not the Audi specialist for prob half the price now I know the faults.

 

Level sensor is a £90 part and easy to replace, they're trying to roger you good on that one. Found exactly where the washer fluid is leaking? Shouldn't be hard.
