Default resetting AR suspension with VAG after spring collapse/replacement?

My allroad that I have owned for all of three weeks, had a collapsed font end when I went out to drive it after a cold night. I tried jacking the car to a standard ride height and seeing if the bags would maybee hold pressure...no luck. I ordered two fonrt airspring and disassembled both spring set-ups, only to find out 3 of the 4 upper arms were shot....more parts ordered. My question is how do I reset the leveling of the car once eveything is reassembled or do i simple just turn it on and see if it fills and levels? will vag rest the code once a level height is reached?

to put the car in jack mode before you started the work?

No, the suspension wouldn't respond to anything. It was litteraly sitting on the bump stops. is this going to cause me mojor problems?

well changed the springs up front and I got nothing, after playing with vag it seems the switch for up front is not opening. How much is a switch, where do i get it from? How hard is it to change.
