The headlights were wired into the suspension, apparently, and now I'm getting a 'warning' light for them.

Default Congrads.. details on the installation and feel?

There is only one other owner with the "Coilroad Mod" and RMcQ- Ryan also has the warning light going.

Default Tx. They were built for the car by 2Bennett in CA. I didn't do the install..

my favorite shop, Bimmers Only (Bedford Hills, NY) did the installation. Then it was sent out for alignment. I'll try to get (dirty) pics on tomorrow of the stance...

Can't really tell yet how it handles, had my daughters dogs with me when I picked it up, then had trucker here to pick up cars going to Barrett-Jackson. Firm... low... needs a bit of tuning maybe... now it needs more supportive, sporty, seats.

Default Did you try to close the circuit right on the connector? Furthermore, did you check on the wiring

diagram in the Bentley? That could give you some ideas on how to trick this thing.
From what you are saying it seems that the headlight system will need a feed from somewhere in order to kill the Warning light.

One more thing, a comparison between the wiring diagram of an A6/A4 and the allroad could also lead to some solutions.....just a thought.

Why didn't you say so? I could translate - no big deal.

Default I wrote to the seller, I think he has to approve me before I can buy them...

This is what it says...
