Default A8 D2 PF 4.2 Xenon low beam intermittent shuts off

Xenon lowbeam (high beam is halogen, this is standard on this).

One of the lights will when the rpm is high sometimes shutt of, and the defect light symbols is coming. Without doing anything else than switching the lights off and on, it works again.

It happens only when WOT, high rpm. And not everytime. Changed Xenon bulb, same thing. It seeams that it is coming at the same time as the ASR light i blinking.


1997 Audi A8 4.2Abz European modell 5-speed tip.

Mine used to flicker and/or turn off during spirited driving. I just replaced the entire HID setup with a set from Retrofit Source and no more issues.
