E46 Ride-Height Sensors: Notes
WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 37 other vehicles, including the 2006 BMW 330Ci, 2006 BMW 325Ci, 2005 BMW M3, 2005 BMW 330xi, and 2005 BMW 330i. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The ride-height sensors supply the input signals for the headlight-range adjustment.
The automatic headlight-range adjustment feature adjusts the vertical aim of the headlights to compensate for variations in the vehicle tilt angle (e.g. when the vehicle is laden, and under braking and acceleration in dynamic driving situations).
