How do I replace the headlight level sensor?
When I purchased my e93, the headlight leveling didn't work at all, and my headlights have been pointed at the ground since. I bought a replacement level sensor and connecting rod but I cannot find any diy's on how to replace them. If anyone has done this job before, please give me some insight on what I need to do. Thanks!

It's pretty simple. I've replaced the level sensor in the rear and the ride height sensor in the front. Which one are you replacing? Is it/are they missing?
Basically, the rods have small threaded ball-joints that bolt onto the sensor level arm and a bracket on the left front control arm and left rear control arm. The rear sensor is kinda tucked up in between the suspension arms in the rear suspension, but it is still accessible. The sensors have an electrical connector and mounts with screws. Unplug it first, then remove the rod by removing the nut on the ball joint. Then remove the screws that hold the sensor to its bracket. Not sure what else to tell you.

A manual transmission can be set to "comfort", "sport", and "track" modes simply by the technique and speed at which you shift it; it doesn't need "modes", modes are for manumatics that try to behave like a real 3-pedal manual transmission. If you can money-shift it, it's a manual transmission. "Yeah, but NO ONE puts an automatic trans shift knob on a manual transmission."
