New X5 owner....2002. Poor headlights, low beams useless. Please Help.

I think he meant they dont turn on like a regular halogen bulb.

I cant recall off hand if those are auto levelling units or not...if they aren't your only option is to use the adjustment knobs on the headlight housing.

I just looked under the hood at the headlight housing and saw the white plastic looking adjustment knobs. From what I gather Counter-Clockwise will raise them. I'm just not sure which ones to adjust? The ones on the inside (closest to the center) or the ones on the outsides?

I've been searching the board, the one link I found wasn't extremely clear.

Inners are vertical adjustment, outers are lateral.

I just raised it up on the passenger side, but I cant find the inner screw on the driver side.

I just got them both figured out. Thanks all for your help! I will fine tune them over the next few nights.
