Default How Do You Correct Xenon Headlight Auto Level Sensor Due To Lowered Suspension On A 4.2?
VAG is not the solution, dealer says that a new headlamp sensor bracket that is attached to suspension has to be fabricated. Sounds like a long fix as others have lowered their 4.2. Must I drive forever with the warning display illuminated ? Please help with suggestions. Thank You.

Never had that problem and have used VAG to relevel since lowering (cause of an accident).
