I believe you have to adjust the sensor on the rear. Never done this though.

yes you have a plastic allen key slot on the back of each headlight,thats to adjust the height,
you need the ignition fully on but car not running,then line your headlights up on a wall and adjust them so they are level
nothing to adjust on the rear sensor iirc
hope this helps

You adjust the lights back to the correct position by turning the headlight adjuster in the back of the headlight. If you look behind them you'll see the adjuster with a white 6mm allen socket, turning this one way or another will adjust the lights up or down.

You need to do this with the ignition on of it'll just go back how it was before when you start the car.

I have the same problem with my drivers side headlight being far too high and getting flashed all the time!! However i have tried to adjust the height on the drivers light and has not affect!! I can adjust the passanger light fine. Can anyone tell me which part is broken, cost and how hard it is to replace?

Cheers,
