headlights again!!!!

[FlameR]

I altered the height of my drivers side xenon head light a while ago, cos it looked quite a bit dimmer than the passenger one!

For some reason my passenger one has randomly changed, and now is waaay to high. I tried changing the height in the same way I did the drivers one, with an allen key. But the level of the light does seem to change when parked against a wall with the lights on.

Any ideas whats wrong with it? I seem to blind people when overtaking on the m'way!

Well I turned the white nylon thing with an allen key so much that it came off lol. Oooops, it's still waaaay to high and blinding everyone. It lights up the overhead signs on the motorway its that high

couple things... check the auto hieght adjuster on the rear axel hasnt failed quite common. this is only active when the ignition is on irrc and goes quite frequenty on Mk2 172/182. otherwise sounds like the manual adjust is fooked and that basically the light is moving on the pivot.

You might need to remove the unit to have proper look, which is a bumper off job, but only takes around 30mins.
