    Went to work this morning and one of the headlamp bulbs went.

    So, checking the handbook it said because it has Xenons, I need to contact Audi, so I did. WTF :eek:

    Sheffield Audi stated the following:
    £60.00 to run a diagnostic to check if the bulb had blown

    £180.00 for a bulb, I fell through the chuffin floor into Orgreave Pit when he said that.

    That didn't include fitting, which they estimated to be £80.00.

    I said are you being serious, £320 to fit a bulb, the answer was that it could be more if one of the ballast packs had gone too.

    Autobulbs.co.uk and £45.00 for the same bulb.

  15. Any vag group car i can scan and diagnose for you. But cars are getting more high tech and that means more cost when they break unfortunately.
