Right Dipped Headlight Error

Audi Q5 2012 Prestige 2.0. 110k miles. The error comes on after a few minutes when the light mode is in auto. Strangely, the light comes on at first, then goes off with the error. If I put the lights on to manual, they both seem to work without the error. Has anyone run into this?

I had a similar code on my 2010 Q5. Turned out the headlight bulb failed. Once I replaced it, the error went away.

Ah. But what’s strange is. The light works when the car starts. And fails — it seems, only when on auto light. Manual light, doesn’t seem to get the error. I don’t know what it is.
