Default My dynamic headlight dimmer control is not functioning . . . . .

now that both Xenon headlights and the grill have been replaced by my local body shop due to collision damage. Neither the body shop or the local Audi dealer seem to have clue. Any suggestions?

I see. I would think that was mechanical. Hopefully xenon doesn't use a special grill.

Default That's right. It is suppose to adjust the pitch .....

automatically when the car changes attitude. What must be done to eliminate the warning light? I would imagine that it is computer controlled somehow.

Default Had the same misfortune to need new grill and xenon lamp.. .

when I received the car the headlamp dimming warning lamp was displayed. Audi tech "did a basic setting on the dynamic headlight control unit" and the warning lamp went out and I had functioning dimmers again. Your Audi guy/gal should be able to do this work.
