Also, to assure better contact, I bended the pins slightly . Here you can see 3 of them already bended:


4000 kms later, not a single failure.

So here are my recommendations, before you take the car to the dealer to replace the lights (that WON´T olve the issue) and before you start coding the car (that is just a workaround):

MAKE SURE THE PINS ARE CLEAN AND MAKE SURE THEY MAKE GOOD CONTACT BY BENDING THEM!
I've cleaned mine with electric contact cleaner. It worked for a day and started doing the same thing again. Haven't tried bending the pins.
