Head Lamp Not level Driver side lower normal?
Is the driver side head lamp a slight lower than the passenger's? Is it normal? I know I've search it on other thread but I do not have a definitive answer. Anyone please help? THANKS!

That's how it is on mine as well. I don't have P2 (no bi-xenon). Was wondering the same thing, but now I'm guessing it's normal since yours is like that too. Anyone else?

i believe that is normal. it is so the passenger side can slightly illuminate street signs and such and so the driver side lights don't blind oncoming traffic.
in my last car it was extremely evident that the lights aim in 2 different angles.

Must be normal as mine came that way too.
It did bug me enough as it looks like a mistake. I had the dealer correct it. Guess they figured that it was better to make them the same than try to convince me that it was suppose to be that way.

Thanks for the reply guys... So I guess there's no need to get all spooked about lights not being level eh? I have a Bi-xenon btw too. Its my first so I don't know if it was normal or not

white and whiter
like said above. it's normal. right hand drive cars are exact opposite.
also if you feel your headlight is not aiming high enough you can adjust it with a screw driver to the 'white socket' looking thing on the back of the headlight.
