Audi Headlight Level Sensor: DIY Repair for $15

Audi Headlight Level Sensor: DIY Repair for $15

I notice that my headlights were pointing way to high. I did some research and found out there could be an issue with my headlight level sensor located on my driver rear axle. I found the arm connecting to the level sensor to the axle had broken off. I tried to repair the arms but it was made of plastics and the swivel bolts had seized. I called up the dealer and they wouldn’t sell me the arm by itself. I was told I needed to buy the entire sensor. I could’ve went to a scrap yard and buy a used arm but it would just break off again. I decided to make my own.

Another idea I used: buy a cheap knockoff sensor from aliexpress (about € 14), remove the sensor arm and use that. The knockoff sensor itself is probably shit, but the arm is fine to use on the Audi sensor.

Sorry i realized my mistake. It's the ball joint that rotates not the screw lol. So yeah it can be tightened all the way. This is genius and I ordered tonight. Actually it's $13 per piece plus shipping. $35 per side. Not bad. This is how it should have been made. They make it to fail so they make more money.
