Same thing happened to my old A5. Your ballast is likely dying, you’ll likely need to replace that and the bulb. You don’t need a whole new headlight.
I know it’s not a Q7, but I’ve got a 2019 C8 A6 and recently had my read pads replaced by an independent, £275 but that also included my MOT at the same time.
I brought in my 2019 Audi A7 for an alternator recall. The car has 40k miles on it. While the car was in they found the water pump was leaking and said they replaced it under warranty along with the alternator.
Yes basically the same as Macan calipers, just a LOT less expensive. The feel is great, more pad area and better clamping force compared to the OEM single piston, made my tires scream for mercy. The weight savings is a nice perk as well.
Rear shock absorbers went on both my Audi’s, whether that’s a part related issue or my driving who knows but it’s a pretty cheap fix so I wasn’t bothered.
It went out at 40,000 miles and was replaced without issue by the dealer which provided an A6 as a loaner for the week it took to replace the alternator. I still love the car and would not move to Mercedes

“Audi and other German cars are not reliable” **when** **you refuse to performed scheduled maintenance**
**All car makes/ models possibly including** “Your model got recalled if you check on Google and Consumers Reports”
“Audi's cost an arm/leg to fix” **as** **quality materials do in fact cost more than inferior.**
“After 3-5 years, they will start breaking apart” **See #1 related to maintenance**
“Audis aren’t even that well built together and fall apart easily in accidents” **Blatantly false , audis are heavy as shit. If you've never seen an audi subframe removed, they are big, they are heavy.**
“Lease a German, don’t finance it at all” **This statement doesn't include a reason, perhaps the reason is to get out before you have to perform maintenance or owning the car outright?**
My water pump failed and dealer replaced it under warranty. They claimed it was $5080. I would never own one of these without warranty. Stupid expensive parts/dealer labor.
My car has spend at least a month at the dealership with warranty repairs. Alternator, thermostat and water-pump are main repairs. Parts need to be ordered in every time. 31K miles now. Not so convinced about the build quality of this price range car….
I was in the same boat on my 19’ s5 w 37k miles. 7600 out of pocket. The urge to resist selling feet pics that day is unimaginable. And I think you replied to a comment earlier, but they do have a recall for the base models but not our S line of vehicles for the same part/problem… my wallet may have recovered but my heart still felt betrayed. Until I go for a drive… I can forgive her for her mistakes..
My s5 water pump failed at 300 miles, car wound up lemon’d.
