Installed h&r coils

Hi guys, just dropped the car on h&r coils yesterday, but I noticed that my xenon auto level not working anymore, when I start the car it basically doesn't auto level and stays at lowest point, sensors on the front and back lower control arm and axel are in contact , nothing is broken, I tried unplugging the sensor in front lower control arm, now it auto levels all the way down and then all the way up and stays up this time, does this have anything to do with lowering the car ? How do I fix it ? Which sensor is actually responsible for the auto level , front or back? Thanks guys

Do a search in this section. There is a thread explaining how to correct the issue.

There is a black plastic bar attached to your rear suspension on the left side of the car. More than likely it was reinstalled incorrectly. Easy fix... Just search around on the forum for pics or take a look yourself. Then, either fix it yourself or have your installer do it for you.

This actually isn't his problem. It happened to me as well after a coil over install. The rear sensor bar wasn't reinstalled correctly so it isn't detecting his suspension levels.

no not bouncy at all, it is stiff but in a good way, i love the way it drives and looks now, i dont regret my my decision at all. by the way the issue i had with my light is resolved, seemed like the shop who did my coils did not disconnect the front sensore linkage which is attached to the control arm , some how it caused the bracket holding the sensor to bend, all was good after i bent the bracket to its original position and alligning the sensor arm to the right position

Glad it got fix, that's one thing I hate about paying people to mod my car. They are careless ;(
