My Xenons shine a little high?

unreall_23 · 08-21-2010, 07:06 PM

Hey guys, seems like my Xenons are pointing a little high and not lighting up the road as well as they should.

Maybe it is just my imagination. What is DIY method of checking if they are level? What should the beam pattern look like?

I can take it to dealer to get it checked, but it is a pain dropping it off, getting a ride etc.

Thanks!

I'm not familiar with non M's; however I thought all BMW Xenons have adaptive self leveling systems - they have been known to fail however, or lock-up...
