Hi there.
I recently replaced the rear axle on my 2011 1.4 TFSI S-Line. Whilst under there I noticed that the headlight level sensor was completely seized. I replaced the whole assembly and had no issues at first but, the headlights started aiming really high then dropping suddenly. I did a bit of digging then tried to carry out the adaptation on VCDS. I cannot get it to complete the basic setting and it's now thrown up code 393989 missing calibration. I cannot clear the code as I can't complete the setup. There is a xenon calibration guide on VCDS but it's from 2007 and the functions have since changed. If anyone knows how to carry out a setup it would be really appreciated.

Cheers.
