this done? Dealership? Anyone with a VAGcom tool? or am I SOL?

Thanks!

go to the dealer. they may charge you ~$100 ...

but that is MUCH better than the $1000 it will cost to replace the xenon adjustor unit (the current predicament i'm in).

mine needed to be.....

I noticed they seemed low and during 15k inspection they found they were low and adjusted them. I have to assume that the sensors located front rear may have been moved or repositioned when suspension was done and it affected my lights.

Joe,

Hope all is good. Let me know the outcome as I am sure mine need adjusting and I'm probably going to stop by the dealer and ask them how long and how much etc.

TIA
