Coil Overs
After coil overs installed (and air suspension removed) the headlights point straight down. Can anyone advise which sensor is responsible for this? thanks

Do you have Active Headlights? Since the car doesn't know what height or load is in the car it probably defaults to the lowest setting possible. Go into STAR and see if you can re-aim them or turn them off

Perform zero point adjustment via DAS and your problem will be solved

I left the level sensors on when I did my swap and had no issues with active headlights.
