Today we will explain how to replace the headlight bulb on a 2012 Audi Q5 vehicle. To perform this operation, we need to open the front hood and remove the outer cover of the front bumper by releasing the plastic tabs; by removing the four pins we extract the piece.

We then remove the plastic cover of the light fixture and remove the bulb. Disconnect the connector and connect it to the new bulb.

Insert the bulb into the headlight and mount the cover. Mount the plastic piece as a hood cover and close the hood.

Once the tires have been properly inflated, you can turn on the instrument cluster and navigate through the menu until you find the option that indicates tire pressure: if this screen shows the new values, the light will turn off; otherwise, you will need to drive for a few miles so that the sensors can read the new values and turn off the light afterward.
