After replacing the headlight housing and then performing a supposedly "successful" initial adjustment, the automatic leveling function no longer works. Calibration after light activation also fails.

Error memory is empty.

While doing some research, I came across a software bug in the VCDS forum.

Is there any information available on this topic?

VCDS Version 11.11.3

Hello,

No, I am not aware of any bugs in that regard. The current VCDS-RKS version is 11.11.4.
Was sagen die Messwerte? Autoscan?

Best regards, Rainer.

Hi.

What happened with the actual problem regarding the headlight?

Okay, please provide the German text you would like me to translate into English. I will only provide the translation.

... there was another T.

I don't know what the f*ck it was.

Check three posts above.

Now I just have to wait for Valeo to replace the headlight because the new one has a color band at the light/dark boundary. The old headlight was fine. The bulb and electronics were taken from the old one.

According to Valeo Service: Have you ever swapped the burners horizontally?
Okay, I can do that. Just need to quickly remove and reinstall the front bumper, turn the headlights on and off, align them, adjust them, etc. However, removing the bumper from this vehicle will likely cause some damage.
Die seitlichen Halter zerbrĂśseln zumindestens. Who pays for it?

Valeo: Okay, then order a new headlight and a new bulb from your dealer.
(Possible cause according to Valeo: Burr formation (uneven edge) on the bezel for the low beam headlight.)
Replace the burner, check the headlight before installation. If not okay, replace the headlight... etc. Return the defective headlight.

Me: Question: Do the original equipment (OE) headlights come from a different production facility?
Valeo: No.

Also den Scheinwerfer bestellt -- Null Bestand bei Valeo. Liefertermin 1. February week.
Let's see what happens and who ends up paying for it. If necessary, the supplier will have to take the blame – not me!

Well, the rest of that bucket isn't much better either... The whole thing is (in my opinion) simply an outrage. Whether the new models are better remains to be seen. But maybe they won't break down and stay on the side of the road anymore, but will actually make it to the icon_lol.gif.
