RS4 B7 lights

Post by bandit » Sat Oct 29, 2011 5:00 pm

Hi ive now got myself a rs4, and it's a great replacement for my e46 m3, but i have found one small problem with the car, which is when i turn on the lights at night , they flicker and have gone off completely just leaving side lights on , once they came back on quickly and the other i had to turn the car off and back on and they worked, but flickered for a wile, if they dont go out they will flicker for about 3-5 miles then be ok , any ideas would be helpfull thanks
