Anyone feel their headlights are aimed a bit high from the factory?

[Jaythor74]

I was curious if anyone has adjusted their headlights? My low beams seem to be aimed a bit high from the factory. I’ve been flashed a few times by other drivers and from my view the light pattern seems weak like it’s out too far. 4 door base btw. Thanks

No. Oddly enough, I was thinking the other night they seemed to be aimed perfectly. No one has flashed me.

Install an aftermarket bumper and a winch. That should fix it.

Go to a Volkswagon dealer or another service provider that uses a digital headlight aiming tool.
That will give you and other drivers the best possible headlight aim. So no more guessing.

Lots of people use the garage door etc. Gets you pretty good IF you have a floor and a wall/Door that creates a 90 degree angle at the correct distance. But you can still be off.
Volkswagon uses the digital aimer as part of their service routine.

I swapped in sig lights and had to adjust. It's stupid easy to adjust just a 6mm hex bolt, iirc, moves them up and down.

I know I'm digging up an older thread but 100% in agreement, they're way high from the factory. Will eventually get them properly aimed but in the short term I need to give the adjustment screws a turn or two down to stop them from being aimed in the eyes of oncoming traffic,
