Default Self-Levelling Headlight Error

About 30 seconds after starting my car when leaving work yesterday, the screen flashed an error that the self-leveling function of the left headlight failed, then the same error a few seconds later for the right headlight. I turned the car of and on, the error did not repeat, and the self-levelling appears to work fine.

Fluke? Bug? Anyone else experienced this?

I'll mention to the service advisor when I bring her in for the 5,000 mile service in a month or so.

I had this happen - took it to the dealer, they found nothing wrong and in the past 4-5 months it has never repeated. Good news is that even with the error, the lights appeared to work just fine in their "default" position.

Happened once to me and never repeated.

Thanks for the replies. It happened again when leaving work today. Restarted and didn't see it again. Will need to check and see if they're leveling properly this weekend.

Do you know your build date?
As for me, I haven't had any problems so far.

This happened to mine 3-4 times, each time it just went away with a restart. Haven't bothered to take it to the dealer yet...
