Just replaced my 2007 Audi A6 left headlight. Took 20 minutes after watching your video three times. I never would have found all those clips without your video. Thanks you...thank you...thank you. The more small repairs I can do myself the longer it makes economic sense to keep my 12 year old Audi.
thankyou just done my 2011 a6 very useful much brighter now need to change the other bulbs fog and flash are discoloured . keep doing the videos great content
Just replaced my 2005 Audi A6 drivers side bulb. Replaced passenger side a while ago. Car has 258,000 miles so I can't complain. Hard to get one's arms down there though...
Great teaching video. Nitrile gloves good idea. The left side -drivers side isn't bad the passenger side is much more work. Thank you for making the video... thumbs up!!!
Thanks for your video and looks completely doable. Wouldn’t it be easier to remove the powers steering pump reservoir along with the coolant one? I have large hands and could be a problem. All the best.
I couldn't get the cover open due to that power steering tank. I removed the tank from its position in order to get the cover open. The other difference was the wire. There was no clip holding it. And if I'm not mistaken, the wire was either stuck to the igniter or it was mounted fixed. So I didn't remove the wire. Other stuff was the same. At least it worked after I put everything back together.
Wear rubber nitrile or latex gloves on you hands while anywhere in vicinity of the bulb lens.....surgical gloves if you will. Slightest drop of oil or dirt from hands...yes even clean hands can significantly degrade the bulb beam pattern and or cause bulb to blow out significantly earlier.
Yes, we did a fsi and 1.8t hybrid... Why? it was actually me that pointed out to integrated engineering that their conversion kit is not going to work, because the fsi oil pump has both oil pressure release valves in there... and 1.8t has one on the pump and one in the oil filter bracket. they never tested the oil pressure with their kit..:( and the pressure went past 100psi. i pointed out that they need the adapter plate for 1.8t filter mount and adapt that to the engine as well. they made the adapter plate and started selling it, didnt even give me one.
+EDGEMOTORS Wow, that just goes to show, these people are just selling parts and don't know whether it will harm or help. I was thinking about doing this to a FSI Audi but I was not sure about it being a good idea with the lack of info about it online.
+215Sugarfree well, with the oil filter spacer and 1.8t oil filter mount, it should be fine. but if you do go that rout make sure you check the pressure...
+EDGEMOTORS Ok I will. I want to put a big turbo on this car but the oil pump scares me. That is why I was investigating. I used your video for sludge in the 1.8t on an A4 I was selling, worked perfect man. You know your shit dude.........
Hey guys i would love to become an audi tech but from what ive hered its very hard to get a job at the dealer and very expensive to go to school to get a job at an european car dealer so i would like to know is there any other way to learn or what did you have to do become a vw/audi tech?
yea i've learned a lot of stuff on youtube and read a lot on google, i have an audi a4 b6 and audi a6 c6 i bought a vag-com so i can try to diagnose stuff im more comfortable working on my a4 but not so much on my a6 it seems like the newer the car the harder they make it to work on and it seems impossible to learn without working at a dealer did you have anyone in your family that tough you or did you learn all on your own?
I have a very unusual query, an insect somehow managed to get inside of my RH light housing, any one know how this could have happened or how to solve?
speedtime I live in Mitchell sd might as well be bfe but theres one business that does Audi its a i90 mechanic shop. But they don't do collision just basic stuff
I got a new one. And it turns out I didn’t undo the second clip. That’s why it wouldn’t fit. Watched your video again and saw what I did wrong. Thanks.

Nothing but praise about ALL your videos. No shortcuts, precision and heads up when needed. Thank you very much. Please continue!
Canadian Tire wanted to charge me 130$ and said it would take 1 hour and 10 minutes. Thanks for saving me some money

This video gave me the confidence to replace my bulb. The process was just as you showed, step by step. Thanks for the great instructions!
It's quite easy to take the bulb out, but the fun begins when you must bring the new one back ;) Thank's for the video

Yes guy! Thank you!!!
Nicely done! In focus and clear details.
Were you holding the camera at the same time?
If so, bonus points!
Thank you, Helped me a lot!
Do I have to just buy the bulb single or can you buy the bulb that comes with the silver thing
Thanks for the video!
Is there a video that shows how to remove the left side ballast? I believe it is mounted under the left side light housing>
Cant get the clips back on the new bulb when put in
Question, not related to this video. Have you guys ever did the FSI to 1.8t oil pump conversion?
Yes, we did a fsi and 1.8t hybrid... Why?
it was actually me that pointed out to integrated engineering that their conversion kit is not going to work, because the fsi oil pump has both oil pressure release valves in there... and 1.8t has one on the pump and one in the oil filter bracket. they never tested the oil pressure with their kit..:( and the pressure went past 100psi. i pointed out that they need the adapter plate for 1.8t filter mount and adapt that to the engine as well. they made the adapter plate and started selling it, didnt even give me one.

What type of bulb that is? Please
where are you located?
Does this also work on 2004 a8L. I was told I have to remove the front bumper to get the bulb out! Please help!!
xed if they don't do research they will pull bumber 99% of times they just wanna charge you more do it yourself.
Would this work for an 2011 Audi A6 supercharged prestige? Adaptable headlights?
noah sullivan
Yes that would be the same
Hey guys i would love to become an audi tech but from what ive hered its very hard to get a job at the dealer and very expensive to go to school to get a job at an european car dealer so i would like to know is there any other way to learn or what did you have to do become a vw/audi tech?
+rusani89
this is my hobby. i started as an enthusiast, and it all went from there... it all depends on how much you really want to learn.:)
yea i've learned a lot of stuff on youtube and read a lot on google, i have an audi a4 b6 and audi a6 c6 i bought a vag-com so i can try to diagnose stuff im more comfortable working on my a4 but not so much on my a6 it seems like the newer the car the harder they make it to work on and it seems impossible to learn without working at a dealer did you have anyone in your family that tough you or did you learn all on your own?
+rusani89 no i learned all on my own...
how what did you use?
thank you.
Nice
I have a very unusual query, an insect somehow managed to get inside of my RH light housing, any one know how this could have happened or how to solve?
Probably the covers are broken....
In the future if I happen to buy an Audi I will bring it to you to where I live at nobody know nothing about these cars so they refuse to work on them
speedtime I live in Mitchell sd might as well be bfe but theres one business that does Audi its a i90 mechanic shop. But they don't do collision just basic stuff
That just too tight for me,ihat to remove powersteering tank then i could fitt my hand to take buld out.
I could barely see half of the stuff you did this dont look to easy
Bulb would not fit for shit. Just fucking broke it. $80 down the drain
If it’s the right bulb it should fit
I got a new one. And it turns out I didn’t undo the second clip. That’s why it wouldn’t fit. Watched your video again and saw what I did wrong. Thanks.
👍
What bulb type is that?
Nice
