Just fitted eibach coilovers and front m3 control arms.car was massively out of alignment but we just quickly corrected the front for the time being(run out of time).while driving back home the dsc failure light came on and the low tyre pressure warning came up.are these related to having just done the front m3 arms and coilovers.the steering wheel is aiming slightly left but I will be getting full 4 wheel alignment done soon.thanks for any advice

did you change the xenon control arm?

I think it'll just be because the car is still out of alignment mate,

But might be worth checking that you havnt pulled/unplugged an abs sensor.

Where did you source your control headlight rod from? As that's the only piece I now need to fit mine

Nothing to worry about. As the car is out of alignment the car disables the traction control (which also monitors the tyre pressure). One aligned and driven for about 2 or 3 miles it will be all ok!

cheers for the replies.looks like i will have to put up with it till i get full alignment.i changed the xenon headlight leveller,its a main dealer part and cost about £15.

Don't suppose you have the part number to hand?

Sure do.the levelling rod is part number 37142283867.
You will also need a nut to fix the levelling rod to the arm as the the standard one is fixed by a clip.its only a standard nut that can be bought at any motor factors but I think the part number at the dealers is 07119904116

HMmm this is odd...

When i lowered and installed control arms, this never happened to me and i drove 50miles with it out of alignment... dont recommend this as i lost 1mm of tread in that time haha

Cheers mate, thanks very much
