Headlight level sensor

[mattr89]

I have been told at a local garage that my headlight leveling sensor has gone. I know that occasionally the motor goes that will adjust the lights so checked this first and it is fine.

Is the sensor part of the headlight unit, or can I buy them seperately? Can't find anything of any help anywhere.

Thanks

Does anyone know if this will solve the problem

It says OEM Part Number: 4B0907503A

Thanks again

First off, unless you have the optional plasma discharge units, you don't have an automatic headlight level sensor!

They are the proper HID projector headlights, and I have seen the level sensor on the car, but just wondering if I have to go through Skoda and pay mega bucks, or if I can save myself some money and buy the other version.

The octavia one is listed as 1U0907503 on Vagcat and the drawings look identical.At that price I would try it, just see if any codes tell you if it is the front or rear sensor to save the extra effort
