Multibeam LED Alignment Issue
Hi Guys,
Hoping someone can help me - maybe I'm going crazy. I just picked up my car from local dealer - had drivers side headlight replaced (like the entire unit as the previous one had an accumulation of debris inside the sealed unit).
Driving home tonight it felt like both of my headlights when in lowbeam are pointed very low. If i had to guess, I'd say no more than 20 feet in front of the car is illuminated. It also appeared that the drivers side was a bit lower than the passenger side. So maybe 18 feet illumination from drivers side.
Wondering if it's always been this way or if I should take it back to the dealership?

I would go back to the dealership and have them properly calibrate the lights. This happened with my W212 recently after one lamp was replaced and they were all out of sync. Aim was off, one shut off faster than the other, etc. 1 hour at the dealer with calibrations and they're better than ever.
