It sounds like by lowering your suspension you jacked up the height sensors used to automagically level your HID headlights. IIRC you should have two (2) height sensors: one at the front of the car at the driver side front lower control arm and the other one at the rear of the car also on the driver side. Disconnecting those sensors surely won't solve your problem at all. That all means that you'll likely need to use VAG-COM to recode the both height sensor outputs to work with the now lowered suspension.

Or bend the bracket that they're on to the zeroed position!
