Prius (Gen 2) :: 2004 - Passenger Side Brake Light Dim Compared To Driver Side
2004 Prius. When the brakes are applied, the passenger side brake light (LEDs) is dim compared to the driver side. Are the LEDs just dying a slow death? I always thought LEDs either work or don't.
View 3 RepliesIS F (2008-2014) :: How To Do Headlight Re-aiming
Well I had this issue with my car. Needed a new bumper. I guess the shop screwed around with my re-aiming of the headlights a bit much. I touched it a bit and boom. light faces the ground
I am familiar with this issue and all u have to do is get the white part on the screw to slide back in the black at the top of the pic then the aim will operate correctly.
My issue is the white piece seems stripped from to many turns. it will not go forwards or backwards using the screw aim adjuster.
Passat (B5) :: 2001 - Headlight Aiming Kind Of Low
Well I put some HID light in my 2001.5 GLX Passat an I notice that they are aiming kind of low. I know which slots are what. Ones for highering and lowering and the others from side to side. But when I'm trying to adjust them the up and down they work but when I'm trying to adjust the side to side they seem like they aren't moving. Which is a better way to tell? I put it right next to a wall 25 feet away in the dark but I really couldn't tell still. Plus it's not a straight line either. Since I have the perjecter lights their should be a cut off line right? Also is it like turning it right to make the light go right or left to go right, for the side adjustments?

Well one of the bulbs in my regular halogen housings went out, so I went and bought a pair and replaced the bulbs. Everything was great until I took a testdrive and noticed I was signalling MIR (or I guess the ISS this millenium) illuminating road signs very well, and the ground not so well...
View 2 RepliesLexus ES 2007-12 :: LH Headlight Aiming High On 2008 ES350
I have an unusual issue with the drivers side headlight. I recently got a used 2008 ES350 and the drivers side headlight aims high and dazzles oncoming traffic. I have adjusted the two screw adjusters their full range but cannot get the light to aim horizontally. The lights are HID AFS. The car was in a previous accident and the front drivers side wing was repaired.
I have a feeling the body shop did not do a great job (the paintwork is not great) and the light may not be mounted at the correct angle. The AFS works fine for the LH headlight but I don't see much movement of the RH light? Perhaps they installed a non AFS unit during the repair. How to check the alignment of the headlight assembly and body work, and how to correct the headlight problem if the screw adjusters don't move the beam.
Prius (Gen 2) :: Upgrading To HID Bi-Xenon (low And High Beam) And Aiming Headlight?
After months of researching and foruming, I made a satisfied decision to upgrade from Halogen to aftermarket HID Bi-Xenon which is really great in color and high visibility at night.
Moreover, behind Halogen headlight there is a 8mn bolt where you will use your hand or 8mn wrench (remove the black plastic cover over bumper to make more room). Twist it Clockwise to lower and Counter Clockwise to raise headlight.
I aimed mine relatively low because my intention is for a great looking light, high visibility and not blind on-coming traffic and yeah I'm so satisfied.
Touareg :: Driver Side Door Latch Alignment / Adjustment?
Door on the T-reg that is hard to get latched completely? I'm finding a need to reopen/slam the driver's door on a regular basis. Is this something the dealer can "adjust" for me? What would it involve? I don't think the other three doors need to be slammed anywhere near as hard.

I just picked up my new 2011 last night. Noticed today it looks like the corner of the rear bumper on the passenger side is not flush with the car and seems loose. Its not to noticeable but when compared with the driver side there is definitely a difference.

My passenger headlight intermittently goes out then goes back on. Usually when I accelerate. I have had them replace the entire headlight under warranty but to no avail. Is this just a connection problem or is there a TSB for it?
View 7 RepliesPrius (2004-09) :: 2006 - Passenger Side High Beam And Driver Side Regular Headlight Went Out
My 2006 Prius (Model NHW20) has a strange headlight problem. On the passenger side, the high beam light is out but the regular headlight works.
On the driver side, the high beam is working but the regular headlight is out.
I don't think it's the fuses but I'm not sure. No amount of interchanging the following fuses changes anything about the issue:
1. 10A H-LP HI RH
2. 10A H-LP HI LH
3. 15A H-LP LO RH
4. 15A H-LP LO LH
Passat (B5) :: Passenger Side Headlight And Side Marker Went Out
Two months ago I walked out to my car as it was remote started and realized the driver side headlight was out. With a quick tap to the lens it was fixed with no further problems to date. As of yesterday my passenger side headlight and side marker went out. The first thing I tried was the tap method which only brought the sidemarker back to life. Could it be the bulb or a worse problem. I am not sure if its just the bulb seeing that the side marker is going off and on.
View 2 RepliesPassat (B7) :: Driver Side DRL And Passenger Side Headlight Out
I dropped off my 2012 Passat to the dealer this morning because the driver's DRL was out and the passenger headlight was out. Normally I'd change bulbs myself and be on my way but since this is new and under warranty, I let them do the work.
Anyway, fixed the DRL (bad bulb). But the passenger headlight assembly needs replacing. Seems I have fallen victim to a melted housing causing a failure. I've read about the situation somewhere here on the forums and suspected it might be the case. So VW is 2-3 days out on getting a new part and I'm in a loaner for the time being.
I'm guessing this happens a lot with this part. I wonder if VW will issue a recall in the future.
Passat (B6) :: Passenger Side Headlight Went Out
I have a 2007 VW Passat Wolfsburg Edition. The passenger side headlight went out today. This is my first VW, but I've never had a headlight go out this early. A few questions:
1) Is this normal?
2) How much is a new bulb?
3) Can I replace it myself or should I go to the dealer?
Golf V R32 :: Passenger Side Headlight Went Out
The other day my passenger headlight went out. Today I went to replace it, after much frustration I pulled the bumper and the headlights. I first tried swapping ignitors to see if that was the issue. I went to switch the ballast and now nothing is working except for the passenger high beam. I made an apportionment with the steelership. But I wanted to see if there was anything I maybe able to do to avoid this.

The passenger side headlight of my fiance's 2007 Prius keeps going out intermittently. It's a touring model with HID's. I replaced the bulb already and the problem persists. I searched and found that there is a TSB about it [URL]...................... It sounds like it's either the bulb (which I replaced), the wiring, or the HID ECU.
