Start by opening the trunk of your Audi A6. Next, remove the side cover of the trunk by prying it off. Then, unscrew and remove the mounting bolt for the headlight to free the headlight itself. Proceed by pulling the headlight out of its housing, then disconnect and remove the socket to access the burnt-out bulb.

Once you have completed this step, remove the bulb, and the disassembly will be complete. To install the new bulb, follow this procedure in reverse, and the replacement will be finished.
