headlight leveling fail
So tonight, I pull the car out and about 50 yards from the driveway, I notice that the drivers side light is way low. So I pull over, turn the car off and back on, notice that there was no leveling. So drove to dinner and after dinner got in the car and noticed that the passenger side levels, but the drivers side doesn't move. Calling the dealer tomorrow...any thoughts?

Haven't looked at the headlight, but I imagine there are more than one connected to the light. The Xenon is high voltage. The leveling motor is not. I would guess they are in separate plugs. That would mean that you get light and no leveling. You might look and see if something is loose.

try disconnecting the battery for half hour or try swapping out the alc with the other side to determine the cause of the problem.
