High beam adjustment

[Geeman]

My high beams are all over the place. One is up in the air, the other is down on the ground.

The MOT guy pointed it out what I already knew, but it wasn't a fail item. My dipped beams are perfect.

How do you adjust them?

That's very weird!

Usually they can't be adjusted individually as the whole projector/reflector unit is one piece. The only thing I can think of is a badly seated bulb, but even then, the reflector should be 'aiming' the light.

Do you have the H7 or H4 bulbs?

you cant...

The casing that aims the dipped projectors is the same as the casing that aligns the high beams... Unless one of the bulbs isnt fitted correctly or something?

I'd check the dipped projectors ARE actually aligned properly: http://www.modifieda4.com/web/tech/headlight-aiming.html

See... that's exactly what I thought.

Will check the bulbs then.

It was the bulb in the end. Got around to checking it last night. It wasn't sat in the hole straight. Doh!

New HID's to fit tonight as my drivers side is a strobe at the moment...
