How do you remove the front headlight of an Audi car?

Model: Audi A3 8V, MK 3 - Years 2012-2019
Part: Headlight

We illustrate in a generic way how to disassemble the front headlight of an Audi car, specifying that the vehicle used in the video is an Audi A3 8v. In order to access all the pins to be removed, lower, side and rear, it is necessary to remove both the front bumper and the wheel arch. We start with the upper section of the front grille, then move on to the aforementioned bumper and wheel arch, ending with unscrewing the locking pins of the headlight. Now that we have freed it, we pull it outwards, but don't forget to disconnect its rear connector of the cables that power it.

If the central locking system of the Volkswagen Golf 4 is not working, it is likely necessary to reset the system: to do this, open the driver's door and detach the side panel of the dashboard next to the steering wheel. Under this panel, you will find the fuses, including the one for the central locking, which is indicated in the manual as number 14. To reset the system, remove this fuse from its housing, then reinsert it or replace it with a new one of the same amperage: this will reset the central locking system.
