The lights on my Audi A4 3.2 quattro will flicker and sometimes go out while driving at night time. If I stop and pull over the lights will go back on, but the lights will flicker. Some days I have the problem frequently- sometimes I'll go for a stretch of 5-7 days with no problems at night. After recent research I have been lead to this site to report the problem and make someone aware of the fact that multiple Audi owners have been having this problem also. I was referred from fixya.com- and I hope that a solution will be found for Audi owners. The problems the lights can cause are distractions for other drivers, and it may lead to a ticket or another traffic violation for safety reasons. The lights flicker and a dipped light warning will appear on the dash and it has occurred more than once for my vehicle in the past 3 months.
