I too have suffered a birdstrike which has cracked my LH led matrix headlight cover. Surely it is possible to replace just the polycarbonate outer cover? To replace the whole headlight seems typical of Audi dealers' desire to extract as much money as possible from their customers.

I'm on may third A6 Avant with the 3Litre diesel. I'm approaching 100,000 in my current Biturbo. Absolutely no mechanical problems with any of them. The ZF eight speed gearbox is well tried and tested and doesn't require the maintenance of the S-Tronic. Likewise, no cam belt to change. Servicing is done by local garage or specialist . I average 37mpg in mixed driving. Best avoid any cars with panoramic sunroof - I'm in the middle of the well documented leaky sunroof carry on.
