Tail Light Switch problem #1

Tail light (driver's side) has a water leak problem. Many reports of this on various Audi forums. May cause failure of tail, brake, reverse lights over time. Vehicle has less than 50,000 miles. We are the original owners. No apparent damage to light housing.

Headlights problem #2

Passenger headlight stays on for 30 seconds while driving. I turn the knob off then back on. It stays on for 30 seconds again and goes back out. I just had the headlights replaced because I thought they were going bad. I passed another car with the same passenger headlight out then I noticed the light is not blown its an internal problem. Ive checked the wiring connector to headlight and its fine. I did more research online and found out alot of people experiencing the same issue. Please look into this issue. I work at night and I need my headlight. It does the same while parked.
