Hello Guys, I Drove at night today and my left beam seems lower than the right one, also the full beams are way higher and have a very long distance coverage compared to the normal beams... is there a way to adjust them and raise the low beams up a bit ? thanks !
From the WSM Let us know how it goes! Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
Thanks ! I haven't found any Videos so I dunno if this is a DIY thing... maybe should visit my mechanic, but definitely interested to check this in detail this weekend
Thank you mr Patronizing, When I say I haven’t seen any DIY videos on how to fix headlights aiming on a f430, it probably means that there are regulations and specifications needed to be done by a professional. Might be wrong but worth asking. Thanks for this constructive answer!
I think if you look up any video on adjusting like the one I attached ..it will give you idea of what to do That and the manual attached above you should be good ..i Sent from my moto g power using Tapatalk
Can you post a picture of your beam pattern? Typically, the left side should be lower than the right side for a projector beam headlight. It's designed like that to keep the beam lower on the oncoming traffic side. For example: Image Unavailable, Please Login Also, the full beams are suppose to be higher so you can see farther away.
you are right ! I noticed that my light beams are still quite low and have a fairly limited 'light' distance range, especially with my speed on the highway maybe this is normal for this car, but when I compare to my M850i the lighting range seems really short on low beams...
Your 850 probably has dynamic lighting which does auto leveling, etc so not really a fair comparison. If you feel it's too low, you can always raise them up a bit, but my guess is that it is set to a factory standard. Best way really is to pull up to a flat wall on a level surface and take measurements.
as mentioned above ( as a rough check only) .. pull up to a wall - mark center spot or top dark to line line , pull back 25 feet and see if the center or top ( dark to light line) dropped about 3 in .. if more than 4 you have issue
