| Help - My D3 has a squint! (Bi Zenons that is) |
|
I have tried searching for this on the forum, but could not find any mention. When driving home last night, I noticed that the right hand dipped beam is pointing decidedly lower than the left. Main beam seems OK, just the dipped beam. The headlight goes through it's up-down-left-right routine OK on start up, but the right beam is just low.  Any Ideas? I have just 'bought' it after the 3 years on Freedom, don't tell me I have to call WD already?

For UK (RHD) D3s, the right hand headlamp beam should be slightly lower than the left to avoid dazzling oncoming drivers.
The LHD beam pattern is the inverse.
When you say "decidedly" lower, do you mean that it is pointing straight down at the floor or just a bit lower? 2006 Discovery 3 TDV6 SE Auto Buckingham Blue

The right hand beam, the cut off is about 15 feet in front of the car, but the left hand is about 40 feet away. I am thinking of looking tonight at the lever that changes the drive from left to right for mainland Europe driving, to see if that is loose or something.
