Why not? It won't hurt to ask MNAO replacing your older "D" version driver-side LED headlight matching your "H"/"J" version on passenger side. The worst case is like you don't ask and leave it as is. Can you see the accent strip LED DRL on older "D" version LED headlight is made by a list of dot matrix LEDs or smooth fiber-optic style LEDs?My driver-side lamp was module was replaced in Nov 2016. The invoice lists part number as H, but when I checked it today, the part installed is KA0G-51-040D. This probably explains why I didn't notice any difference after that replacement. Is D the faulty version? asking because, I am now worried, this module might fail again soon.
The passenger-side module was replaced last week. Invoice has part number as J, but the part installed is KA0G-51-030H.
There is a noticeable difference between the brightness and color temperature of the DRLs between H and D versions - H being less brighter and warmer than D. However, I did not notice much difference between the headlight brightness/temperature while driving at night or while looking at reflection of headlight on storefronts.
Any point in asking MNAO to replace the already-replaced driver-side module to match the passenger-side module, considering car is out of warranty?
