Had my 6 for nearly a week now and after a few night time drives I've notived that the headlights seem to be pointing quite low. Obviously I've tried the electric adjustment but this doesn't quite get them high enough. They do seem really low, dangerously low to be honest and just wondered if there was also a manual adjustment on the headlamp itself. I tried to search the forum but couldn't see a similar thread. Thanks in advance!!

sorry only pic i have



These are morettes but the height adjuster is the same as on normal headlights

The little white plastic alan key socket will raise/lower the height

Unless the nipple on the height adjuster that connects it to the headlight has snapped....

If it's pointing as low as you say it is then JA is right Yes

Gently see if you can move the bulb unit, if it moves up & down it has snapped Wink

SORTED, the white nipples has popped out of the headlight and as the electronic adjuster nipples were in the wrong place they were pushing the headlights really low. Thanks for the help tho guys!!
