Hi I have 2008 discovery and have competed a 4.5 conversion. The headlights all work as they should but I have got a headlight leveling light flashing on the dash. The headlight leveling function does not work on the new lights. Just to be clear the car had auto level xenon lights on before and they have the highest spec lights in now. Is there any way I can deactivate the leveling function so the light does not flash.
Thanks Alex

you could try editing some CCF options if you have a GAP IID

All xenon lights have auto leveling (regulation I believe) but perhaps you meant that you had automatic cornering (AFS) previously? The D4 AFS feature is not compatible with D3 as you noticed. You should be able to disable adaptive frontlight system with IID.

Xenon lights don't have self leveling if they come from a car with air suspension? The suspension does the leveling doesn't it?Richard

Thanks for your replies, interesting as I’m sure my lights used to move before, I think I should try the iid idea to deactivate adaptive headlights. My friend has already tried this but do you need the full function of the iid tool for this as he tried on my car and my vin isn’t added to the tool?

I did the same conversion from D3 Xenon with self levelling. As mentioned you need an IID to deactivate it in the CCF.
Interestingly after completing this the warning on the dash goes out but you will get errors when you read the codes in future. Error codes state something like “short to ground” can’t remember exactly..
You can just ignore these errors obviously.Disco3 project

Thank you that’s promising to know, being doing my brain in driving it for last 3-4 months with it flashing so will be nice to get rid. Did you have to adjust your headlights for correct beam pattern?

D3 to D4 stalk flash with Headlights switched off
Hi did anyone manage to wire up the flash on your D3 to work with the new D4 headlights?
I'm guessing a relay feeding a live to one of the pins on the headlight connection block and a trigger from one of the wires to the relay. If so which pin needs the live on connector block and where do I take a trigger from as I presume dipped headlight wire is not live while Headlights are switched off?
Any help would so much appreciated as it's a nightmare without having the flash with Headlights off.
Cheers guys 🤞👍😊

I think I've read that on the D3 fitted with xenon's;
If the xenon's aren't already illuminated, then flashing the lights doesn't illuminate the xenon's... The flash only illuminated the halogen's.
