Hi all

I purchased the A4 last Friday and on Sat I found I couldn't turn ECON mode off! On investigation and after connecting to VAGCOM, it gave an error with the G65 pressure switch (or lack of pressure). Anyway, I thought I'd try to get the switch first as an internet search revealed it was a common fault and I read somewhere it was easy to change. Simply take out the headlamp unit, unscrew and replace!!

WOW, was I wrong! I must have read the instructions for a different model, because I've spent literally hours removing all the screws I can and the headlight will not come out pas the bumper. On searching again (using the correct model, B8), I found a diagram that looked like my model and indicated there were only about a dozen bolts to remove and the headlight would come out. Strange, I thought, I must of missed something?!?!? So....I tried again, only to be defeated again!

It's looking to me like I actually have to dismantle the front of the car to remove the headlight to change the switch!!!!!! Who designs a car like that?? Or, am I missing something?? I have searched and searched, but cannot find and details of how to remove this headlight or indeed the front of the car. Plenty of stuff about the B7 and the B6, but not for mine.......so........here's the question...

Has anyone any idea how to do this? Any help greatly appreciated.

Many thanks in advance
