I just got my IS350 F-sport which equipped with HID headlight for few days, but I have encountered a weird problem as every time I start the car the HID headlight never does a self-leveling job. It just never goes up and down and back to its original spot in which I have never encountered in my previous owned vehicles. Can anyone tell me if this is a normal situation here?

 

From my knowledge all f-sport models come with LED headlights. I don't think they have self leveling or at least I haven't noticed it on mine

 

Shivad87 is correct. In the U.S. the F-sport models come with twin LED lamps not HIDs. Might be different in Canada though.

 

It's different in Canada, mine has the single projector headlights

 

From what I read, Lexus is going away with auto leveling headlights.

 

Oh really thx for the input so i Guess my headlight is normal ?

 

Far as I'm aware F Sport doesn't have self leveling or the adaptive headlight feature.

 

hmm swore I witnessed my LED headlights self-level when I first turned them on during the demo... but since then it's never done it again. so I must've been tripping.

 

No LED headlights in Canada, unless it's the top 350 AWD version. As for the HIDs for which I also have, they do not self-level. It's normal.

 

I dont get why they took the auto level out?!?

I loved that frature at night time in the 2is

Especially during turns at night
It seriously helps out a lot

I was wondering the same thing but thanks for clearing it up
Its disappointing but o well
Can't have it all i guess:/

One thing im epic pissed about though is no USBM
O and appearently canada gets heated steering wheel!!!!!!
W T F!!!!!!!!!!!

USA blows D--k

 

we dont have the cooled seats thought.

 

My car does self level as I have seen it multiple times when turning on my car .....I would say start your car at night in front of your garage door and you will see the lights level when your turn the car on

 

I was reading the manual and I couldn't find anything in the index for 'self-leveling headlamps/headlights' but I did find 'automatic level headlights' which sounds like the same thing as self-leveling. I have a Canadian model which comes standard with bi-xenon HID projectors.

 

No self leveling, huh? I would expect it from Lexus...

 

Not to insult anyone's intelligence (no offense intended), but are you guys sure that what you are seing with HIDs is not the effect when the gas is warming? All HID bulbs go through a quick phase of innitializing when first turned on. They flash, dim, then brighten when the bulb gas gets warm. It might give the illusion of them looking really bright and higher level, then dropping and leveling out. That is just the gas warming. All of my past cars with HIDs did it, and my LEDs on my 3IS does it slightly.
