active xenon speed adjust

[MrLapou]

Find when taking sharp back road bends at slowish speeds, the active xenon lights do not swivel left/right. Can this be set so they do at lower speeds?

Go faster

 

[MrLapou]

that is an option, but not really into ditch hugging....

 

[NHN]

I'll check mine tomorrow for you, but how slow?

 

[MrLapou]

Thanks NHN.....say down to 10mph, but ideally 5mph.

Hey MrLapou sorry for hijacking your thread, but I was wondering if this "active xenon" that you are talking about would be standard on a 2009 s3? I didnt think my car had it but it would be interesting to find out if it did. Thanks.

 

[NHN]

Bixenons are standard on S3's, adaptive type was optional, if not fitted, then we can certainly upgrade the systems/lights for this feature

 

[s3_trev]

Is it worth it though?

 

[MrLapou]

Sorry I meant adaptive not active.

In slow corners, yes really work well.

 

[s5joe]

How do you know if you have got it

 

[NHN]

Well they do a left/right/up/down dance on startup, part numbers of headlights can help, but yes I think they're worthwhile.

Or the plastic behind the round lens is all silver in finish instead of black. Check out a previous thread where I posted a pic.
