What has changed with the coding update?
Evening, Everything seems to be working ok on the lights front, dash warnings are gone, and all indications are correct, including MFD. Just working my way through the fault list now. I am sure snooping around in the "drop-downs" there was a basic settings....could have dreamed it. I hope to have time on it tomorrow afternoon. I am finding it all very interesting this VCDS and coding( for an oldie like me)- but don't want a dead van on my drive if I mess it up lol. I have included the latest scan....the sporadic event in address line 10 no faults but flags up! It says something like unit not registered? Still no joy with the ALWR.....I will owe you and F-roger a beer of two!

Calibration/basic setting is done by parking on flat level ground and going into module 55 and running basic settings, this will tell the vehicle what its base parameters are, if done succesfully the headlights will dive and then level and the fault will be gone but you cannot run basic settings when the levelling controller cant see the level sensors which is what your fault scan is reporting !
You need to check that level sensor wiring and connections and get them working first

Pauly - went back to basics! All voltages present and correct. I then noticed the sensor plugs have a purple retaining clip....push this into place on the front sensor , probably holding the contacts off by about 3mm - fault cleared. Repeated for rear. All faults bar the radio have cleared - Basic settings done and accepted. Many thanks for your patience with an olde boy! Just the radar bracket to change...but not this weekend. Cheers Buddy

is the cost so expensive just because you are upgrading the componants inside original lights? Can you not just buy LED upgraded units for less money?
 
Cross posting this as my factory LEDs were retrofits using the info and expert knowledge in this thread:

Main Beam 1x Flash Issue

In a nutshell, my main beam won’t flash when my lights are set to sidelight only (or AUTO during daylight).

Looking for some advice on what this could be caused by.

Many thanks
