Poor headlight performance

[Beard]

Has anyone else got poorly preforming low beams? I can't see more than a few meters in front of me and when going 100km/h (60mph) it's kinda jarring that I won't see something non-reflective up ahead.

Is there a way to adjust them to be higher?

High beams are great though.

Hmm something seems off because i think the low beams are quite bright on our cars. Any loose connections or damaged wires?

Based on your description, make sure you have the actual low-beams on, and not just the daytime running lamps.

I do a crap load of night time driving as I'm a night shift worker, always seem to drive to work in the dark and home in the dark. Pretty rural area, so always on the lookout for wildlife. I hope the headlights are decent, haha.

Definitely is the low beam, it's switched to auto mode. I'll try get a photo to show what I mean. I can see everything fine within a few meters, it's just beyond that there's a definite cut off and darkness.

I live in the country as well, and don’t seem to have a problem with seeing down the road. I hope that you be able to remedy your situation soon!

Why not use your warranty and have the dealership inspect their adjustment of the headlights?

That's a great idea actually. I have a recall for a loose front bumper due (Australia). I will get them to inspect that at the same time!

You're welcome. Maybe the tech missed checking the headlight level during the PDI.
