Headlight adjustment?
Anyone know how to adjust the headlights on a 2012 Coupe? I found some little adjuster looking things under a small white cap just above the headlights but turning it doesn't make the headlight move. My low beams don't project out far enough and I'd hate the take the car into the dealership just to have the lights adjusted.

I resolved my problem and it was a simple fix. I was turning the wrong knob to adjust the lights. I there's actually two leveling Adjustments on each side of the headlight. The first very noticable one are black hex shaped which level the sides of the beam. If you look behind the actual headlight you will notice yellowish white tab which also rotates. This is the correct knob that adjusts the beam height.

I also had mine adjusted at the first service visit. Tech said they were "at spec" but adjusted them up a little for me anyway. Solved the problem.

My 2014 has the intelligent light system, USA version. This link talks about how I adjusted mine. The beams were way too low before I adjusted them.
