    ABS issue - changed sensor now reading incorrect signal

    Ok, so I just wanted to conclude this. I found that the part supplied by Eurocarparts was incorrect for my car, as mine is fitted with ACC, levelling headlights etc and the sensor was for cars without these.

    Upgrading standard xenon to dynamic cornering xenons, is it possible ?

    Hi, I have just purchased a 2013 SE with standard xenons (non-LED) fitted as an option. Would I be able to change the headlights for xenons with dynamic cornerning, I'm guessing from a Golf R ? Is it a case of replacing the headlights and re-encoding ? Many thanks
