Does anyone know how to ajust the height of the dip beam on a very new Tuscan? After removing the bonnet and access panel, I would have expected to see a vertical and a horizontal adjuster screw for each lamp unit. But on mine, there appears to be a servo motor for height adjustment, see pics.

Dealers that I've spoken to say to wind the vertical adjuster, but there ain't one. I could obviously wind the two remaining adjusters, but I'd prefer to know what is / how to operate this servo.

Not sure what you mean - the pics show the main light unit (the red bit) and the side light (the black bit) - where is this servo you mention?

The black bit is not the sidelight. The sidelight is situated inside and below the dip light unit, not outside and above it. The sidelight is not actually visible in any of the pics.

The black thing is definitely part of the dip light unit it's just not easy to see from the pics.

I have those light on my griff and the LH pic shows the adjuster, long "hex" bolt. Maybe as you say you have a servo for the one adjuster. It would make sense to be on the left bottom of the light as this is the area that "rises" at the kerb. I know they can take a while to setup correctly, had to have mine out twice now!

Sorry man, I've no idea where you might hire one. I see you've been up to Logik

Okay, so I've heard that the headlamps are now adjusted using the POD. But how ?
