Bad Xenon bulb

Hello,

My wife's MY2009 R320's driver-side Xenon beam is starting to show pink. Can anyone tell me if this is covered by the extended warranty and if not, what are the options as far as replacement is concerned and costs?

Thanks

If I were to just guess, I'd say no. Most of the times warranty doesn't cover wear and tear items such as light bulbs.

If you go to the dealer the bulb will be around $180- whether or not they charge labor is up to them.

If you buy the bulb on eBay, I think OEMs run for around $40.
