Headlights misaligned! What do i do?

Post by VwPo1o »

The headlights on my polo aren't aligned. The left one is higher then the right, so it appears to be too bright to the other drivers. How do i sort this out?

Any garage will do it for a few quid.

Lots of cars fail their MOTs on headlight alignment, my MK2 certainly did.

the cockpit light adjustment only adjusts both up and down i think not individually. it may do for the time being tho?

The cockpit light adjustment doesn't really help. I have it on the lowest setting and it still reaches the drivers in front. I thougt that maybe i could do it myself. It happened to me before and i went to volkswagen. They wanted to charge me £20 for it, but they ended not charging me at all cos i was hacked off!!! :x :evil:
Guess i'll just have to go to a mechanic.
Thanx anyway.
