Types of bulbs

[peter goble]

is there a list of bulb types for the A6. 57 2.7 tdi se, one of the side lights has gone & sick of the warning on DIS, but would also like to know what bulbs are on the car, it has Xenons if that is any use?

Xenon beam is D2S, sidelight/drl should be listed in the handbook.

Maybe do a search as it's all been done before

Edit - a search brought up that the drl/sidelight is p21w.

Can I put LED'S in the DRL'S / SIDELIGHTS or will this show up a fault?

Fit canbus friendly bulbs and it won't throw an error.

I can recommend EM Tuning for bulbs.

Cheers Chris, will look tomorrow

Although many canbus friendly bulbs do throw errors or "pulse" when switched off.

I've abandoned LEDs for DRLs and sidelights after having tried twice. But I do have some supposed "white" P21W bulbs just arrived I'll be trying. They do look a bit Max Power blue but I'll see what they're like on.


DRL is P21W

Side is W5W.

Our sponsor, autobulbs, have a handy system that's fairly reliable.

Just enter your reg plate or vehicle details and it will list most (if not all) of the bulbs fitted.
