Default Self leveling equipment.

Looking at the equipment list for '98 99 and 2000 m.y. A8's, I do not see mention of the self leveling system that is referenced in the ebahn service literature.
Do all 8s have this system, or none?
A system related to HID headlamps?

Anyone?

Yes that is the function of such systems.

Since this option is not listed in the reference given for the inquiry above, My question is the frequency of installation and how to determine from references such as VIN numbers which vehicles are so equipped.

Self leveling would be quite nice, and I would even consider jacking up the vehicle to advantage in the "deep snow conditions" experienced yesterday.

OH! The skiing was fantastic! Temps of -14C provided some very dry snow.
