Yes, i did. It was one of the rear ABS sensors that was to close to the ABS ring built into the wheel bearing. The ring was rusty and scraped against the sensor. I need to change the bearing in the future but for now, a washer between the sensor and the wheel hub separating the two a few mm and cleaning the ring did the trick.
I think VCDS found the fault as "Left rear abs sensor fault" or something like that.
I dont know what the ligthts have to do with ABS but nothing surprises me anymore with this car...

I've actually had a new wheel bearing fitted today and they told me I needed a new abs sensor but couldn't get hold of 1 till tomorrow. They told me my abs light will come on which is understandable but when the headlight range defective flashed up it really confused me. Hopefully after the new sensor has being fitted that will sort it, thanks for the reply after you posted so long ago
