OEM Audi & VW Lighting

There's lighting on your Volkswagen or Audi for nearly every use you can think of. Headlights are a good example. Their low-beam function is for everyday driving. Their high-beam function is for when it's very dark. Headlights also function as hazard lights, "flashers" that inform others that you need help or that there's danger nearby. Taillights and daytime running lights (also called DRLs), on the other hand, show drivers your position. You've even got "blinkers," signal lighting that indicates turns or lane changes, not to mention brake lights, which show you're slowing down or stopping. But did you know that, depending on what Audi or VW model you drive, you may have other types of lighting, too? Fog lights are one instance. They're excellent in bad weather, as they shine low to minimize glare. Puddle lights are another example. They help you and your passengers steer clear of rainwater by illuminating the area below your doors. You may even have specialty lighting. It highlights license plate frames and other exterior accessories. Most lights are one of a few types: halogen, Xenon (also known as high-intensity discharge or HID), or LED.

What Lighting Does My Car Need?

That's dependent on its model and body style. When to change a car light bulb, however, doesn't. Change Xenon bulbs every few years as they dim. Change LED bulbs if their electronics fail or the lights themselves burn out. Change halogen bulbs about every two years.
