I have a 2001 QX4 with blue Zenon bulbs. I just had one replaced at the dealer and now it is yellowish white. Reply from the dealer is it will turn blue over time. This sounds fishy, is he correct?

no, if it is not a zenon bulb it will not be blue, they probably stuck in regular oem bulbs.

Zenon's usually start very blue and fade over time, not the other way around.

This is not true. I think these guys are confused with blue ricer halogen bulbs. New HID bulbs will be a yellowish white and after about 100 hours of use they colorshift towards a blueish white. If you want your bulbs to match then you need to replace both otherwise just wait it out until the colorshift.
