I know this is a fairly common issue for people with the adaptive headlights. My question is the fix. Is it as simple as having the dealer calibrate them or a hard reset? Thanks in advance.

Fairly common? Every report I’ve seen on headlights and leveling kits, there has been zero issues. Me included.

The one other report of this I saw was corrected when the dealer recalibrated the system after the level kit was installed.

I believe there is a way to recalibrate, but first, I’d check the 4 ride height sensors and make sure one just isn’t unplugged from having the level done.

I think it largely depends on the height of the level. I used 5100’s and the eibach springs, so it’s around 2.7”. I only get the fault under heavy acceleration as the front suspension unloads.

I went back and checked after I finished the install. Seems the dealer recal is the route to go.
