Headlight turning on when it wants to

so i got the hid bulbs changed at the dealer a few weeks ago, its been turning on well but the last couple of days its been giving me problems, i have to turn the switch a few times for it to turn on, and i emailed the dude at the dealership and he said that "Generally the bulbs are ok, flickering is 95% of the time caused by a failing ignitor" but its not flickering, it just turns on when it wants to and when it turns on it works well, has anyone had this problem?

I'm currently having this issue. Changing the bulb helped a little on the driver side, now it's doing the same on the passenger side.

I guess I will have to change the ballast and ignitor, have you fixed this since you posted this ?

Thanks!
