I did not know that the X5 had an automatic headlight sensor

I recently replaced most of my front suspension - torsion arms, control arms, lower ball joints, bushes, sway bar links etc. I have recently noticed that my headlights are rather high and I get flashed quite a lot by other motorists. I have Xenon lights which are very bright.

How can I check the automatic headlight sensor attached to the right front suspension to see if it in the correct position?

Is it easier to adjust the white screw on the top of the headlights to lower the beam?
