Headlights "Fix"

[Dannyp]

Hi
I've noticed a couple of posts here about the headlights being a bit of a let-down.
I felt the same for a while.
They were only any use at all on full beam - and even when not on full beam I was often getting flashed by oncoming vehicles.
The solution???

I changed the setting from L/R hand drive (can't remember the exact description), and "presto" the lights are now fine - and no more flashing!

I think the car was supplied to me (new) set up for continental driving on the right?

It's a Macan S 2022 model .

It's worth checking this of you're similarly disappointed with the lights

I don't often get "objections" to my lights and have been delighted with them on both cars, but I'll definitely check.... any excuse for a quick ferret through the menus!

Never understood the comment on the ability of the headlights on the Macan - my lights are amazing and provide great illumination - both dipped and full beam.

It was the halogen lights on the earlier cars that came in for a lot of criticism hence the numerous warnings given for anyone buying used cars.

And if you’ve been following Ti Rich’s thread on the subject of upgrades you’ll have seen how trying that can be!

Yes, the halogen lights were poor; the Bi-Xenon lights should have been standard as a minimum.

When did LED lights become a standard fitment?
