headlight aiming on slammed xi
I am almost at the lowest setting maybe like 2 threads away, but headlights still arent aiming correctly for the autoadjust. I double checked the sensors and made sure they were on correctly and such but no luck. still aims straight down to the floor. Did anyone else have this issue? did you guys have to just adjust it on the headlights itself?

The "auto-adjust" you're seeing is the levelers that respond to the suspension moving up and down. But there's a manual adjuster for the overall aiming of the light housings. You need to adjust these to get the lights aimed.
Easiest way to do it is park on a level surface in front of a wall, turn on the lights, pop the hood, and use the adjusters to aim the lights so the beams are even with each other. I do this in my garage with the car backed in so it's facing the door, and I then close the garage door. This is where the height adjuster is: You can use a phillips head screwdriver but it's a bit easier if you have an allen key that fits the opening. |
