not sure if u do or not... but u should turn ur HIDs on AFTER you start the car.. and not before. The amount energy to start the car will screw with the HIDs. Not sure if this might be some cause of it... but just to let u know!

How did you connect your ballast? Is it connected directly to the 9006 plug; connected to the battery with a relay on the 9006 to switch it on; or another way?
