could also be a major electrical/charging system issue.
I just replaced my alternator because it was making a horrible noise. Within half an hour of driving, both those lights came on for me. 20 minutes later, the day time running lights have stopped working. I think I'm going to take off that new alternator and have it bench tested to see if it's working properly.
Other than that I don't know what else to do.
Are your lights on steady or do they sorta flash on and off. Not at full bright, but more like half? Mine will flash off and on. I bought a new belt and tensioned it properly. Thought that might help. It didn't.
