e46 M3 auto leveling Headlamp fix

[Xack]

So on my way home from a friends place, i note that my headlamps were pointing downwards, and i could barely see where was going. Next day, popped of the front driverside wheel to have a look at the Self leveling headlamp sensor, looks like this.



The little arm on the sensor attaches to the cars suspension and keeps adjusting the headlamps accordingly. Mine seems to have come loose some how as you can see below.



Clipped it back on and Bobs your uncle, headlamps are auto adjusting like they should.



Here you can see how its suppose to be attached.



i think this should apply to almost all BMW's with Auto leveling Headlamps... hope it helps somebody else in future who may get stuck with this issue. Enjoy:=):

Get ready for it to break. It is insanely common for the clips to let go on them.

The E90 has a more sturdy way to attach. Thing is, they tend to break on the E90's, as opposed to unclipping.

And come now Xack, take both wheel linings off and clean there dammit!:rollsmile:
