Is there any info on the proper way of setting the headlights? Or just use the adjusters as normal?
I'm a little confused about the self leveling thing and if you need to adjust the "Xenon Range" in VCDS.

2. Go to basic settings
3. Select group 001 then GO. It'll say 'adjust headlights' or something similar in the measuring blocks
4. Physically adjust the headlights
5. Go to group 002 and GO
6. You're done.
