I have a 2004 V8 and one of the headlights seems to be more dim than the other. Why? The car doesn't seem to be the only one that does that, but I've seen another one with the same problem.
View 8 RepliesI've replaced my headlights. the problem is putting it back on. I twist to a lock, but the headlights get loose in a couple of days and it needs to be tighten. I don't want to twist too hard in case anything breaks. Is there a way to adjust the headlight to ensure it being lock? I know I'm suppose to hear like a loud click when it's lock.
View 6 RepliesI've noticed that my left low beam headlight is considerably higher (aimed) than my right. I have concluded that my left one is high, as opposed to my right side being low. How to adjust only the vertical adjustment of the low beam headlights?
I have looked under the hood and saw some off-white plastic adjusters but I'm not sure. I don't' want to go twisting and turning things willy-nilly. Yes, I did scour the manual but no mention of adjustment. Yes, it tells how to remove the headlights (!) but not how to adjust.
Noticed recently that when the headlights are set to "auto", with the DRL's on (during daylight hours), the headlights turn on at 100 mph.
View 5 RepliesI cannot turn off the Xenon head lights in my early 04. I have the DRL option on. If you open the door, turn the key on for the radio, just want to jump start another car, etc. - always on.

View 1 RepliesHow do you remove the Touareg Headlights to replace the light bulbs. I have fount the open close turn, but that doesn't release them all the way.
View 3 RepliesI recently changed out my headlight bulbs and now the headlights are slightly out of alignment. I know that the Xenon-equipped Tregs have self-leveling headlights, but mine is the non-Xenon model.
How do I go about aligning the headlights? I did a search and found a thread in the Passat forum, referring to "2 white screws", but don't recall seeing anything similar under my hood.
The two projector lights closest to the grill are not operating. My low and high beams seem to be working. DRL is also working when the parking brake is released. I have used the search and it isn't working. I am also waiting for a new owner's manual. I didn't get one with the vehicle.
View 4 RepliesI have a 2005 V8 with Xenons. I noticed today whilst cleaning my Touareg the headlights have loads of tiny cracks in the lenses. I live in Houston TX, so it's probably caused by the heat.
View 11 RepliesThis afternoon when coming back to my car I noticed that the small panel which covers the passenger side power washer for the headlights was missing. The car was parked in a safe place and I don't recall using the windshield/headlight washers recently. I does not appear that the piece "broke" in that from what I can tell there are no rough edges or anything that indicates it snapped off.
View 2 RepliesLast night my headlights came on as soon as I pulled the door handle. They were left in the Tunnel position(as they usually are). The doors were locked when I left the truck. Keys in hand. I had been parked in the rain, for 3 hours. It didn't repeat this morning in the dark garage.(they didn't come on til I turned the key, as usual).
View 5 RepliesI really like that my headlights are always on but I can't figure out how to turn them off at night, for those rare occasions at the drive-in theater.
View 5 RepliesThe headlights on my 05 V8 (12K mi) are starting to "fog" up a bit on the inside -- and all within the last 200mi or so. The fog doesn't appear to be the result of condensation inside of the lens. Instead, it almost looks like the glass is now dirty and, I'd guess, about 10% opaque immediately in front of the main projectors on both sides. It shows no signs of going away under any conditions. FWIW, the weather has been steady temperature-wise and has been quite dry for the last few weeks.
View 6 RepliesI had a bulb go out and was replaced under warranty. The problem no is that it is a yellow color and not blue/white like the original and the other. The dealer said that after burn in it will also change to the blue/white.
View 0 RepliesI just bought new DS1 8k bulbs to replace my aging 6k bulbs. It was a sinch to install and seemed too good to be true. Well i turn my car on and the check bulbs light came on and low and behold the lights do not turn on. The dealership said it would not matter whether I had 6k before and bought 8k but it seems like this might be the issue.
View 4 RepliesMy car makes a funny sound (like an audio cassette being rewound in the area above the radio in the dash) when I start it, and the sound only stops when I turn the headlights on.
View 3 RepliesI will be picking up my new 06' V10 in a few days ...after searching desperately for an 07' in the colors I wanted it was a no-go. Anyway, one of the features I wanted in the 07' was the adaptive (turning) bi-xenon headlamps. Is it possible to upgrade to them?
View 5 RepliesSince a couple of days whenever I turn the T-reg on even in bright sunshine the lights come on (for night driving and the DRL goes off) when the light switch is in the "AUTO" position. I can turn the lights off by placing the light switch in the "OFF" position and then the DRL lights up (correctly).
View 1 RepliesI have a 2007 Prius and my driver's side headlight is out. From what I've read, the HID lights are difficult to replace. How do I tell what kind of headlight I have? I want to make sure I am getting the correct replacement bulb.
View 5 RepliesI have a 2002 Saab 9-5 with a 3.0L turbo with 125k miles. The cruise control works fantastic UNLESS the headlights are on... huh??
I can replicate 100% of the time. It is getting dark earlier now - and my wife will not drive it anymore to work (35 miles) without the cruise control working.
