Adaptive headlight problem
Adaptive headlight problem
Hi everyone new to this site. Recently purchased my first beemer. Been having problems with the adaptive headlights. I thought my beams were too long so adjusted them a bit higher. Since then they keep coming down and I presume this has something to do with the automatic headlight function. The problem I'm having is my beams seem to be pointing towards the passenger side of the road. I think I may have adjusted the horizontal beam but having tried to fix I'm getting nothing. Any reply would be greatly appreciated. Cheers. Dave
Re: Adaptive headlight problem
May be worth checking the level sensors, mounted behind the front struts
The only successful way to set the headlamps will be with a beam setter at a garage or Mot station otherwise it's guess work
The old tried and tested method is to drive up to a wall in the dark with lights on and adjust the beam by line of sight though you've lost the initial reference it'll be guess work going forward
