In this video, you will learn how to replace the headlight bulb on an Audi Q5: start by opening the hood and removing the front clips that hold the protective cover in place. Underneath, there are Torx screws that secure the headlight assembly.

At the bottom of the headlight, there is another screw to remove to release the headlight. Now, gently slide the headlight forward; it won't come out completely (unless you remove the front bumper), but the space available is enough to reach in and remove the bulb cover (without dropping it into the bumper like our YouTuber did) so you can replace it. Remove the old bulb and replace it: it is a Philips XE Eco Star F9-1-9 D3S rated at 35 Watts.

You can find them on eBay for $43.00 per pair with the code 225572285084, with free shipping.
