yeh yeh thats want i ment, cheers i fully understand now. I think i'll go check with VW first, see wht they say. Hopefully i wont get chargedwomble68 wrote:I think what you're wondering is what do you use to use VAG-COM - You'll need a tool from a company such as Ross-Tech which then plugs into the Interface in the Ashtray (Next to the Cigarette Lighter the tray pulls out and underneath is the interface). Check out Ross-Tech.com for some info. I'm sure Alex will let you know where to buy one.

Re: adjusting headlights?
I recently changed the HID bulbs to some nice 6000k ones. However, when taking apart the headlight unit I accidentally turned the headlight adjustment screw on one of the headlights thinking it was a screw to remove the cover 
My question is can I simply line my car up against a wall and adjust the screw to make the height the same as the headlight that wasn't "accidentally adjusted"?
Or will the Xenons ignore my mistake and self level automatically?
Any advice is appreciated.

Re: adjusting headlights?
the headlights self level as a pair so you can go up against a wall and level the screw you changed....however, projection headlights need far more precise calibration than reflector headlights so it may be wise to get it done at a garage with a light meter/adjuster to get it correct.

Cool, cheers for the advice.
