Headlight Adjustment
« on: 14 December 2008, 17:34:29 »
Hi all, I am trying to raise the beam of driver's headlight by adjusting to the 2 screws (Remenbering the No of turns) on top of the headlight, but nothing is changing. the long screws also seem to turn some white button at the back of the light. Any ideas...help much appreciated. (2.5 V6 mini facelift) :)

Sound to me like an adjuster inside the headlamps has disintegrated (a very common problem for which the only real remedy is a new headlamp) :(
