I recently purchased a BMW 8 Series and noticed that the headlights are not properly aligned. How can I adjust them myself without having to take it to a mechanic? Any tips or recommendations would be greatly appreciated.
ReplyHi Samantha, adjusting the headlights on your BMW 8 Series is actually not as difficult as it may seem. First, park your car on a flat surface approximately 25 feet away from a garage door or wall. Turn on your headlights and mark the center of each headlight beam on the wall with a piece of tape. Then, use a screwdriver to adjust the vertical and horizontal alignment of the headlights until they are centered on the marks you made. It may take a few adjustments, but take your time and make sure they are aligned properly. Hope this helps!
Hi Samantha, it's important to regularly check and adjust your headlights, as proper alignment not only improves your visibility but also prevents blinding other drivers on the road. In addition to following the steps mentioned by John, another helpful tip is to use a level to ensure your headlights are perpendicular to the ground. This will ensure the optimum beam pattern for your BMW 8 Series. Happy driving!
Hey Samantha, adjusting your headlights is an important maintenance task that helps improve your driving safety. In addition to using a screwdriver and level as suggested by John and Mark, you can also consult your BMW 8 Series owner's manual for specific instructions and diagrams. If you're still having trouble, don't hesitate to take it to a trusted mechanic who can help you properly adjust your headlights.
