Bulbs
Replacing light bulbs
For your safety , we recommend that you have
your authorized Audi dealer replace burned out
bulbs for you.
It i s becoming increasingly more and more diffi
cu lt to replace vehicle light bulbs s ince in many
cases, other parts of the car must first be re
moved 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 meta l and bulb holders can have sharp
edges that can cause serious cuts, and pa rts
must be correctly taken apart and then properly
put back together to help prevent breakage of
parts and long term damage from water that can .,,_
