I already searched the forum on adjusting the headlights yourself. Most say you need a vag-com. I don't have one, would I be able to manually adjust the screws to aim them higher?

it already had a crack in it from when I adjusted the rear
but it didn't break or anything. i will have to check that. i am pretty sure the headlights slightly move when i turn them on with the car. doesn't that mean the auto-leveling is active?

you can aim them manually ...
if you open the hood, you'll see a slot that's just big enough for a screw driver to fit in. (near/on the headlight)
i forget which way makes them go up or down though :-(

Ummmm-- careful
not one but TWO Audi techs told me not to do that without first somehow using the VAG tool (or VAG-COM) to somehow "disengage" the motor. They said I could break the adjuster mechanism otherwise.
