last night while driving one of the headlight bulbs went out(sort of). it first turned like a violet volor, looked like that purple hid...then it went back to its normal color and worked fine. when i went driving around again the bulb did not turn on at first, but while driving it went back on. wtf is going on? do these bulbs die this fast? i got an 04 i bought in june 05

 

sounds like a problem with the ballast or possibly a bad connection to the bulb. Check the connection and if it is solid, go to the dealership if it's still under warranty.

 

Yeah.........it sounds like the igniter is defective, it might have damage the bulb.
