headlight auto leveling PROBLEM or am i wrong?
i have auto leveling headlights and what i realized today was when i turn the steering wheel to the right, the eyes turn right but when i turn the steering wheel left the headlights dont move all the way to the left like it does when i turn to the right. when i try to turn them to the left they stay at center position and dont move. im sure the eyes are supposed to look through both directions. What do you think the problem is and how can it get fixed? please help. Im probably going to call the dealer tommorrow to get it checked out.

o yes mine is a left-hand drive car. i was also checking it out on my driveway without actually driving it. Im going to go drive it and see if it does move to the left, hopefully it does. Thank you so much, i was really worried there for a minute.

well it shouldnt move that much like when you turn right.
So your light works fine or computer will give you warning message that saying your adaptive headlight does not work.

On left-hand drive cars, which I'm assuming yours is, the adaptive headlights don't move to the left if the car is stationary. This is normal and is designed to not blind oncoming traffic. (I assume the opposite is true on right-hand drive cars...)
