3rd digit is for headlights:

1= Bi-Xenon Headlights (only through index E)
2= Bi-Xenon Headlights w/o LED DRL
3= Bi-Xenon Headlights with LED DRL and Advanced Front-Lighting System
4= Bi-Xenon Headlights with separate P21W-Halogen DRL and Advance Front-Lighting System.

At the minute you are coded for LED DRLs and AFS - 3
Looking at your headlights from the picture you have Bi-Xenons w/o LED DRL and no cornering lights - 2

That possibly is the reason why you get error in Xenon Range Module as well [54]
Highly possible, although all of the lights (barr the D2s pending ballast) now work, the operation of when they come on doesn't match up with the light stalk in the car. I don't think that we are a million miles off being right but at the moment I do have lights so can use it at night to continue with work for the moment, so that is a start.

I've no doubt once the ballast turns up and I contact Scott for availability again then we will get this sorted and a big two fingers up to Audi Main Dealers who's only option was to sell me 30% discounted replacement headlamps at £1,800

I've no doubt Scott when he comes along will see the number that you have posted and know exactly what they mean and take them on board for my next visit. I'll screen capture it also so I have a record.

Regards, Mark.

Model: MY 2008 08 3.0TDI Quattro Sport, Black on Black (Transporter Edition) Lowered 60mm on drop link bars. Alloys swapped out to RS6 style 20" x 9.5". It's got full tints on all windows, and has the black leather interior. Remapped by Elite Automotive in Cornwall, giving an increase output to 290bhp/450lbs.

Options: Keyless Entry & Start, Bluetooth Hands Free, Quad Zone Climate, 3 Spoke Sports Tiptronic Multi Function Steering Wheel, Black Leather Comfort Seats, AMI, Drivers & Passenger Electric Memory Seats, Auto Dimming Mirrors, Bi-Xenons.

Future Plans:
Selling my current Audi A8 Quattro Sport and replace is with a newer D4 Audi A8L with the 4.2V8 Twin Turbo setup once again it must be black. I'm looking for one with the options added where it has the rear recliing seats, with heated outers. Bose speakers minimum and B&O's if affordable. Rear and back door sun blinds prefered.

Planned Mods:
Upon the arrival of my A8L D4, I will be once again having the ECU remapped to a performance setting over economy. Rear Tints as dark as can go whilst also tinting the front windows with a medium tint. Once again I will be purchasing lowering links for the air ride suspension and setting it at 55mm lower when in comfort as my desire rideheight over standard. Alloys will be 21" however the one current most likly to be the next car already has a brand new set of 2016 S8Plus wheels on it.
