Audi / VW OEM headlight leveling sensor, part number 5Q0512521F, is a used genuine component. This left-rear sensor monitors the vehicle's rear suspension height to automatically adjust the headlight beam angle, preventing glare for oncoming traffic when the car is loaded. A failing sensor can cause a headlight leveling warning on the dash or headlights to point too high or low. It fits various MQB-platform models including the Audi A3 and TT, plus Volkswagen Golf, GTI, e-Golf, and Golf Alltrack, with engines ranging from the 1.4L turbo to the 2.0L TDI and 2.5L naturally aspirated.
