#5908 of 6042 Self-Leveling Xenon Controller (?) by bdr127

Sep 30, 2005 (12:44 pm)

Does anyone know what the actual "official" name for the thing that controls the self-leveling xenon headlights? It is a "box" that's about 4"-5" cubed that's right behind the headlights under the hood.... There is a group of wires terminated with a clip that goes to it. Anyone know what this thing is called? I'm looking for a replacement, but I don't know the name of the thing to search for..... Thanks!

I should clarify that to say "under the hood, behind the headlight assembly" (not just the actual bulb itself).... Thanks in advance!

i've dealt with a lot of these controllers, (my dad owns a autobody shop) and i believe it might just be called a igniter, or starting box, if you call a audi/ vw dealership they will prolly be able to tell u

Hello everyone, I just bought a sweet '99 2.8(not quatro) tip, as a second car, but was wondering what chip most people recommend,can I install it myself or whats involved and can I somehow put litronics or Xenons on this car? Also, where can I get a used or reasonabally priced car cover for a '99 A4? Thanks in advance, and I'm happy to be part of the group!

#5914 of 6042 Steady RPM by audiman5

Jan 04, 2006 (3:37 pm)

Hi All,
Just got a 99 A4. Cool car and all that, but I recently had a dead battery issue. I tried to jump it using another car which turned on but I had to replace it because it was completely drained. I installed the new battery, but now the engine rpm is not holding steady at idle. When the car is warmed up and in "park", the rpm oscillates up and down and sometimes it turns off. Otherwise it drives fine. Did I damage anything electronic? Need your help and thanks in advance.

Anyone know if you can run a serial number anywhere online to find out what the car has for options? Looking at an 03 a4, but wondering if it has the sport suspension and 17" wheels. I have the serail number to run. I guess if there isn;t a website to run it, I'll call the dealer...

No, you can't just get that info anywhere.... Call a dealer and see if they'll cooperate with you.
