adjusting headlights
« on: 12 June 2010, 07:55:15 »
last year when i put the car through the mot i was told the headlights were at the uppermost range and would have to be adjusted its a very good garage and usually do these things for you however he said he couldnt do it and i might have to replace the lights ?
i have looked into this and there doesnt appear to be any manual adjustment on this model = X reg 2.6 V6 CDX
it has xenon lights which according to the manual are controlled by the onboard computer so the question is can i adjust these manually if so how
thanks for reading this

Manual adjusters shown inside red circles, one is up/down and the other left/right (can't remember which)
It could also be the plastic adjuster inside them that's broken. Ally adjusters have been manufactured to sort this, and there's a guide on how to fit them.
