    Place that does headlight alignment?

    Fed up of garages taking the piss... 40 quid for a headlight alignment? And they can’t guarantee it’ll pass the NCT if I do the test more than 2 days later?

    Last thing I thought I’d have trouble sorting!

    Any advice or recommendations, just want this over with once and for all...

    Did you check the level sensors attached to the front & rear suspension? These get damaged easily especially on cars that were lowered.

    Yep, front levelling sensor was broken and I got it replaced.

    Attilio and I reckon we figured it out, the drivers side headlight switch (in the wheel arch) was set half way between UK and EU, now it’s set to the UK for sure. All I want now is a garage that does standard headlight alignment to confirm if that was the issue or not, and to have the honesty to say “it wasn’t and I don’t know how to do it” if not.
