It means there's a fault in the HID lights levelling system, it could be either of the level sensors on the near side front wishbone or nearside rear radius arm, or it could be the motor in either headlight. You need a code reader on the car to ask it what the problem is.

apart from the obvious where the arm comes off, you can't see a fault with the sensors.

Now Now gents, as much as I appreciate any help, at the moment I am at a loss as to what advice I am being given.
 What is it that I am looking for ?

Thanks chaps !!

Just left of centre in this pic of front suspension you can see the HID adjuster arm. Make sure it is still attached (ball & socket). Similar one on rear arm forward of rear wheel.

There's a sensor at the front of the car on the near side wishbone & another on rear near side radius arm, the arm has a tendency to pop off the sensor so the car is confused so throws the warning message up. Put a full lock on & have a look at the wishbone, it's obvious if the arm is off. 

[gpalf]

Thanks alot for that

I will have a look tomorrow.

I hope we have calmed down now

Once again thanks for your help.

As above, apart from the obvious you'll need it on a code reader to determine the exact fault.

I have same problem and have had it for 2 years... diagnosed as a fault behind headlight so got myself a replacement adjuster that went behind the suspect headlight ( i know its not whats fitted to the suspension arms) but the fault is still there... any ideas???

Maybe levelling motor. Do both lights adjust when switched on

[Andy B]

.... any ideas???

As answer above  :-?
level sensor front
level sensor rear
motor of either headlight
you need a code reader ................. as above!
