Default Daytime Running Lights . . . Issue?

Gents,

I have had my car for about 2K miles now (2 months) and the LED running lights on the passanger side are now a different color then the driver side. The driver sides are the nice crisp white with a hint of blue while the passangers seem not to be quite as bright and have a bit of a yellow tint. Thinking maybe the passanger side is not getting enough power? Anyone else have an issue similar to this? Ideas before I make a trip to the dealer?

Dude. It is under warranty. Take it to dealer and straighten out.

I heard about this happening to someone else around one of the boards, and can't remember if it was an A4/S4 or which board it was on.

Regardless, it's a warranty issue. Don't let them try to talk you out of it.

I will be taking it down to the dealer. Its about a 30minute run each way for me without traffic to the dealer. So I was hoping it was something simple I could do myself and save me the trip... Anyways, thanks gents.

I have same problem with my 2010 A5. Mine is driver's side is more white/green compare to pass-side which is more white/purple. I thought it was the headlight housing itself. But after installing e-code headlights, still have same problem. I'm clueless as of how to get them matched.
