Adaptive Lighting fault
I have a 2009 D3, on occasions after using main beam light or flashers on exit the bi-exon lights (either one or both) adopt a high position which is like having the main beam lights on.
They remain like this unless I drive over a bump, or I stop and tap the front of the light unit, this is very frustrating.
Has anyone experienced this fault or know the cause?
It is going in for its 1st service next week so I will raise the problem then with the dealer.CTGDT

It's a known fault with the shutter sticking...
They'll probably fit a new headlight unit under warranty.2006 Discovery 3 TDV6 SE AutoBuckingham Blue 2007 Golf GT DSG

Mine has started doing that on the drivers side. If they don't fit a new one under warranty they will get the old one shoved up their ...
