my headlight stay to low does anyone else have this problem and know if m.b can fix it b/c they toled me it has to do with the car suspention.
the 1st pic is with regular lights
the 2nd is with highbeams

 

I had the same problem on my 2004 C240 4matic. I have Bi-Xenon headlights and in one night the headlight did not adjust anymore. I just stop the car and restart and the headlights adjusted normaly. After this I used an Bosch KTS tester and find the error in the error memory of the car. ("Headlights adjusting sensor") I just reset the errors and since then I didn't had this problem anymore. When you start the car the headlights are adjusting the distance of the beam acording to the pitching of the car. This way the headlights beam will not iluminte the sky. (when you have more weight on the back). They will always stay at their designed distance. I don't know if this is the same system in the W204 but I'm sure is and error or an malfunction of the sensor that controlls this.
Hope this helps.

 

my cars lights never adjusted them selfs. i dont know if they have to?

thanks for your info ill be sure to let mb know next time i go.

 

does anyone know if the light adjust when starting the car?

 

Take it to the dealership, your lights aren't adjusting properly. They should dip and readjust every time you start the car.

 

hahaha my car never did that. here is what they toled me.


(customer states headlight are pointed down too far)
tested lamp. confirmed complaint. star tested. found code for left front level senson line faulty or shorted. check senson pin 5 for power and ground. pin 1 grounf ok. power failed. electrical tested resistance in wire from pin 5 to pin 3 in front sam. failed.
stated to trace wire. open part of harness. found broken wire due to zip tie. repaied. erased codes. tested. passed.
aligned lamps with sds. pass.

 

lol - tell them to align them again! They are not pointing back upwards.

 

they toled me when i got my car that it was still the same. that it had to do with the suspention.

i cant drive my car in place wher ther is no street light with out the highbeams. and then i get people on the other side blinding me.

oh yea i almost hit a dear in P.A

 

They don't know what the hell they're talking about. Tell them to compare it to another C63 or even a C350/C300 with the P2 package. The lights should align up just about the same. Looks like yours are pointing straight into the ground.

 

Have you custom lowered your suspension or is it still the factory setup?

 

No. It's stock

 

the lights on a c63 do adjust up and down when starting. just my car does not i have to bring it to dealer.

 

Its been 6 months.

How did it turn out?
