So anyhoo....

I finally got underneath my motor and the sensor on the front wishbone.... was none existant, so got replaced.. and the warning went away  

Now for another problem......

I bought some new D2S bulbs from Ebay.... they came the other day, I fitted them and they take 5-6 attempts before the bulbs fire and stay lit..... I chaged back to the crappy D2S bulbs that came with the car and they fire straight away... now obviously I contacted the seller and as usual they said there's something wrong with the car or the ballast packs.... funny how their stuff is never faulty....

Anyhoo, Iv temporarily installed a pair of H7 6000K HID bulbs in place if the D2S's and there is so much light ......... on the floor..... I now need to find a good pair of headlight levelling motors so the headlights work as they should.... then onto the next problem (when will it end...?) ....... the adjusters are either broken or frozen/seized so they need replaceing with new/fresh to get the headlights to work.....

Just glad Iv got plenty of time and an understanding wife who lets me 'play and tinker' with cars :lol:

I had the excact same problem and was quoted 300,fixed it with a hair band has done great for the past four years replacing when need,but it came back from machanics last week after getting a front spring replaced and the arm is missing.The mechanic says he didn't touch it ,think he is a lier,is the any way of turning of the warning light in  the car without having to replace the arm which seem to be hard to get.

Put the car on right full lock (or take n.s. wheel off) and check that plug on wishbone is connected properly. This was the problem with mine and my cable tie fix (2nd time) seems to have done the trick. It depends where you route the tie to make sure it doesn.t come adrift. HTH.
