Headlights out of allignment...

i noticed that my driver's side headlight is at a higher angle than the passenger's side headlight. to check, i parked the car directly in front of a wall with the lights on (on a flat surface). i found that the emmited light from the two headlights has about a 3 inch difference in height.

anyone know how i can adjust them to be level with each other?...jens?

thanks!

I think there something seriously wrong with your headlights. When someone tried to steal my headalight it was turned towards the sky (literally) and it was still emitting light forward. I think they are self adjusting or something, but maybe its just my car

The best way is to take your car back to dealer. They will use an alignment machine to recalibrate your headlights. And your headlights will be as good as new

Oh i think he means the beams are pointing at different levels...

Try the manual, it says you can adjust the level either clockwise or counterclockwise

Some people have done this after putting on lower springs because their beams point too low
