Default You're supposed to use a VAG-COM to bring the lights into the proper 'adjustment' mode
At that point, the aiming is a manual process. It's like this in my B7 A4 as well. The procedure is outlined in the <a href="http://wiki.ross-tech.com/index.php/Audi_Q7_(4L)_Headlight_Aim_Control_(Adaptive_Light )" target="_blank">Adaptive Lighting Section</a> of the Ross Tech Wiki for the Q7
