beam

As above, right when I was just thinking my cars running nice and well, I've got a warning on the dash saying 'left dipped beam' and sure enough, the left dipped beam is out! I have swapped the drivers to passengers xenon bulbs over, the fault remains on the left, which rules out the bulb at...

Hi y'all, I have a 2006 E class saloon with bi-xenon lights. The dip beam is exceptionally poor. Didn't realise how bad until I borrowed a '99 Nissan Almera with ordinary lights while mine was getting mot'd. Much brighter and safer!!! What do I have to do or check on mine to fix this...

On my W211 E-class there was a lever within the Xenon headlamp housing that pulled the shutter to an angle that provided a flat headlamp beam rather than a being raised to the left - thereby making it suitable for continental driving. I've just started driving a W221 S-class but I'm...

Everything else works okay no warning lights? Anyone else had this? Switch Relay? where should I start to look?

I've ordered some better dipped beam bulbs on the advice of some forum members for my recently acquired 60 plate SLK - whilst the manual seems to show clearly how to change the bulb, it gives no real clue how on earth you get to the back of the headlight! Sorry don't have a picture to hand...

Morning everyone, I need to convert the beam pattern on my lights to drive in Europe for a month. Handbook and dealer say it is a dealer only job, is this true? If not, does anyone have a link for a guide on doing it? I have other vehicles where there is a lever on the back or top of the...

So how do people with normal size hands change the dipped beam bulb on these? Can barely squeeze my hand in, let alone do anything useful! Come on, there must be a trick. Does the black tank thing unbolt (it says "Do Not Open When Hot" but does not look like the coolant expansion tank which is...

I am thinking off upgrading the H7 bulbs in my dip and main beam. Despite my car having loads of extras i am surprised it does not have xenon lights. I have ordinary H7 in now and have in my other car replaced the H7's with Philips extreme 55W and have tested those bulbs in my W209. They...

Hi, Has anyone else had a problem with dipped beam bulbs not lasting very long ? When I got the car 6 months ago, the RH dipped beam bulb needed replacing. Then about a month ago the LH. And now the RH again. Is this normal ? Thanks.

Is there a common problem with the dipped beam on the C Class. Mine seem really dim and need to put on the fog lights to compensate.

Hi, can anyone tell me where the high beam relay is on my 1999 A170? thanks
