Just had this on my daughters car, you need to check the self levelling plug is plugged home correctly or the bracket or rod isn't broken, she had to have a new alternator fitted and they didn't plug it back in correctly so it defaulted to about 10ft in front of the car.

So, I had an issue on my L460, resulted in problem being fixed but created a new problem, the dealer had fiddled with something and forgot to plug the self levelling sensor back in, so I found it and plugged it in and hey presto, worked perfectly. My daughters Disco Sport had a new alternator fitted a coupe of weeks ago and she had the same problem also, they forgot to plug the connector in properly, (on disco sport its on drivers side front axle)so again headlights were lighting up 2ft in front of car. I also checked the plugs at the top of suspension strut in engine bay as well. And again a 30 second fix.

Ive tried to locate the self levelling sensor but it is dark, I will try again tomorrow as I will also be able to put the car on the ramp.
