Guys, I've searched on the web for this. Enclosed is the spreadsheet shot I've taken from the 2001 vehicle database.

From that view, it looks like all of us who got DOT Valeo D2S/H7 projectors from an A4/S4 should aim the projector using VOR instead of VOL, otherwise the "hot" region will simply shoot into other vehicle's interior. The A4/S4 changed to D1S in 2002 so anyone using those should aim using VOR too (according to 2003 spreadsheet). In rare circumstances if you got A6 projector into the car, use VOL. Good luck on that...

thanks for the info. i just go by the 2" lower than straight out for the stepped part of the beam.

Infinite, VOR means that the right side (stepped up part) is on the center line, where the center line means the height of the center of the projector...Anyway, how is it looking now? Is light still shooting into other ppl's car on level ground?

I now know how to adjust it for correction but still don't understand why there exists VOL and VOR stuffs....

the standards exist for different markets, i suppose. my headlights are perfectly fine. they're probably actually aimed too low , but they don't blind people, and i always i have the option of high beam xenon.

I did my harness today and for some reason after I reconnect everything the beam shoots up(!?) Have no idea why....

the bulbs may have been moved when you reconnected them. that is my only explanation...

For the high beam issue, I think the high beam still can't flash during daytime (HID starts with it, at night is OK)....I am thinking to wire another high beam harness so that even though I can't PULL the stick to flash high beam, I can still turn it on when I PUSH the stick to lite only the high beam(I did it before, remember?)....Infinite do you think it works?
