Golf 8 low beam LED Nov 6, 2022 7:44:38 GMT via mobile

Hello,

Straight to question, is there an option to adjust the low beam on my golf 8. I have standard LED lights, but the low beam is really to low.
I have been searching for a solution, but no luck.

When starting the car at night, the lights cycle up and down, but stay very low (you can see only few meters). There is no option on the display.

High beam is OK.

I guess i could mechanically lift them, but i reckon its not the right way. Hopefuly there is a better way, thru OBD11.

Thanks in advance.

You will need start a setting routine, calibrate the headlights in hardware (using measurement equipment) and then acknowledge these settings.

Thanks for the reply newty.

I have access to equipment to mechanically setup the beams, this is no problem.

But you mentioned "to accknowlede settings", did you mean is it a procedure in adoptations or something elese.
If yes, can you please share, how?

Thanks!

Yep:
Park car into calibration place in workshop.
Start Basic Headlight Setting in Central Electrics.
Calibrate Headlights with equipment and hardware tools.
When done, Start Acknowledge Basic setting.

This is all well described in VWs Workshop documents, downloadable via erwin.

In my case it was a case of turning the screw and lifting the lights. Lights are basic LED. It makes difference now, a lot better visibility.

whataboutthis: le4dsoldier if you have a pre 2024 VAG motor that is supported and you have the Pro or Ultimate license you can code Adaptions and long Coding but after 2024 SFD2 STOPS YOU. SFD Can be unlocked but basic plan only allows you to use OCA Nov 21, 2024 16:52:53 GMT

whataboutthis: fliew you need to share more info, car year have you coded in obd11 or vcds etc there is no magic button to revert to factory setting you have to undo all your changes manually in Adaptions and Long Coding you can copy/paste if you have backup Nov 21, 2024 16:54:18 GMT
