Adaptive Headlights Working Correctly?
When driving at night and I turn the steering wheel to the left I see the inside headlight swivel quite a bit to the left, but when I turn the wheel to the right the inside right headlight swivels only slightly right. I don't know if that's how it is or is the right swivel mechanism malfunctioning?
Also, how do I add pic of my car to the signature line??

I think it's an optical illusion because I've noticed this too on mine as well. Since the passenger side headlight has the higher cut off on the projector and since the lights overlap so much you don't notice it turning as much. Since the driver's side is lower and closer to the ground/other objects it makes it easier to see ad more obvious it when it turns.

I see this happen on mine too and have been meaning to ask. At first I thought it started after I adjusted the headlights due to me possibly not doing the same number of turns on the left/right adjustment as in the up/down adjustment, on the passenger side headlight assembly. Doesnt sound like there's anything wrong

Your lights are completely fine. Our AFS is designed to turn 15 degrees to the left when you steer to the left and only 5 degrees to the right when you steer to the right and this is because you do not need to illuminate the sidewalk around a curve to the right.
