is there a head light adjuster for 182

[littleone]

driving along the M5 this evening, and noticed the headlights shinning down on to road and not at a distance found it hard too drive fast and round the bends and look at the same time, can these lights be adjusted or not?????

Read manuel says it but no switch only dash board dimmer.

They are meant to be self leveling.

Just because theyre self levelling doesnt mean theyre setup correctly from the factory.

I had the same problem with my 182; that the right hand headlight wasnt shining as far up the road as it should. Like you, motorway driving at night was dangerous as a result.

Ive got the pic from when i adjusted this previously incase anyone on cliosport needed it.

Just one warning: they are self levelling and if you set them too high you will dazzle/blind oncoming drivers. I suggest you experiment in the dark on a dark road (no street lights if possible) and make small adjustments.

Youll need the correct size alan key to adjust.

Heres the pic:

mine always seem to shine far down the road.

If yours arnt and you only just noticed it maybe there is a fault??

I doubt theres a fault though, not on a new 182.



or as above you could try adjusting them yourself first. Then do a bit of driving see if they adjust with different inclines, weight in car etc.
