headlight issue

[dankriscurly]

Just bought over 2013 model w204...

The left headlight was very high up..

When i adjust the height using the headlight knob the left didnt move at all

I thought both headlamp shld move together?

The left is supposed to be higher as our road signs are on the left side.....

Hmm. Do note some cars on the road seems to have one headlight higher.

But when u adjust it.does both left and right move together?

As when i sent in for servicing c&c say its not common and should be balanced

Will need to sent in to do a check and repair...

I hope they are not wasting my time if its supposed to that way...

I doubt so as e left is way too high and hit oncoming vehicle, could blind them

check if your headlight has a buzzing sound on the left. I just got mine changed under warranty. It does produce a buzzing sound and the headlight is vibrating that is caused by faulty motor in the headlight unit which require to change the whole headlight assembly

Did u mean sound can be heard inside e cabin?

[thaiedwin]

Nope my experience was I turn on battery mode without starting the engine, turn on the headlight and can only hear when I was at the engine bay but not inside the cabin

Hey MB has confirmed the left headlamp unit is faulty as the linkage (dunno wats that) has mulfunction!

Spent 1 day to order in new left headlight (completed set) and fixed up the next day...

Now its balanced and able to move (left & right) together when i adjust e positioning...

I was wondering why ex owner didnt even notice this obvious headlamp issue?

It was shining into direct into oncoming traffic!

Luckily still under warranty

Lucky you, mine took 3 full days! Anyway headlight might not be a obvious issue to some as they wont notice the difference except for blown bulb
