Will Lowering the vehicle affect headlights auto leveling?
Hi there! I will have RS-R lowering springs installed on my '18 GS 350 F- sport next week but I would like to know if lowering the vehicle (Regular RS-R, not Super Down) affect the headlights auto-leveling function? And how long after install can I get the wheels aligned? Any suggestion/help is greatly appreciated. Thank you.

you'll want to wait 2-3 weeks after installing the springs to get the alignment. Make sure the shop focuses on fixing the toe and does what they can for camber, but the toe is what will really be jacked up from lowering and is also what will really accelerate wear if not corrected.

No it will not affect the auto leveling. The auto leveling system is not a "dynamic" system in which it levels the headlights per second like BMW. Instead, it uses a level sensor on the rear axle that send out s a reading when the car is started to determine the amount of auto-leveling needed for this drive.
