Hi folks,

I'm finding that the front headlights are aiming quite low lately - is there a way (without a dealer) to alter the aim height of the HIDs or fine tune the auto levelling?

First you open the light service latch inside the front wheel well.
Then you can adjust via the 2 torx bolts visible at the upper right hand side (pic shows right side).
One bolt adjusts height , the other left/right orientation of the headlight.

Quite cumbersome. Are later models still like this? Is the system auto-levelling at all?

Are those the torx you are mentioning? I want to take a look too.

Correct. One changes the beam height, the other left/right orientation.

FWIW these years later, the outer torx screw adjusts the vertical movement, clockwise for down. I couldn't find this anywhere, so I played with both, but to have known in advance would have avoided me messing up the horizontal setting.
