Skoda Octavia Mk3 VRS DRL turning YELLOW!

Featured Replies

Hi, i own 2014 Skoda Octavia VRS. I bought the car with right DRL already faulty, but driving with it started to get a bit irritating.
I have read few forums on same issue, but there are different answers. One forum stated that the most common issue is the DRL module itself, the other one stated that the whole headlight should be changed, but 500+ € for one headlight seems a bit crispy. I also contacted a guy who restores headlights and he charges about 600€ to get both headlight interiors replaced. Should i check DRL module first, because i need to remove front bumper that is quite a headache!

LED's do wear out and your car is now 11 years old....but here at Briskoda, we like to keep things running as long as possible.

Disassembling the highlight is not a 5-min job. A lot of that work will be labour. The electronics will be cheap to replace.

Typically, it will be between 380-450euros for repair, so expect to pay this. Shop around; find a reputable repairer.

This is odd, my 2014 baught new with 116000 km still has white drl.

My car sleeps in a garage, in don't know if it can affect the leds
