Headlight Range Control light Illuminated
Ok, so I bought my car with a light hit in the front and I had to replace the passenger side headlight. I purchased a used OEM headlight and it looks/works perfect. But, I have this warning showing on the dash. See pic below. I looked up the light in the manual and came up with the below, just recommending I get it checked by the Dealership. Do you guys have any other recomendations?

I assume they are xenons. If so and the headlight is unplugged with the key "on" or the key is turned on while the headlight is unplugged, it sets a fault which can only be cleared with a VAGCOM. I had to clear this fault when I did not seat the connector completely after a timing belt change. Having said all that, if it had some damage, it could have damaged the mechanism that levels the light as well.
