Yes. This is the truck figuring out how much weight you have in the passenger+cargo compartment and then adjusting the headlights up or down so they don't blind oncoming drivers -- that is "ALS" in Lexus lingo vs. "AFS" that used move the headlights horizontally when you turned around corners and is no longer part of the 2013's.

 

Very good and helpful description of what each (ALS VS AFS) does/did. Thanks

 

Well, at least that cool feature is still on the RX, even though there's no more AFS. Whenever my nephew either rides in the car are drives it with me as the passenger at night, he always thinks it is so cool, almost like a space ship(LOL!)

 

Has anyone ever had to have the AFS headlights repaired or replaced?

 

Interesting change that may be coming to the RX 350. Pics taken from Lexus Japan website.

 

Sure looks like the LEDs on my 2013 RX450h. See this picture. Is there some difference I'm missing?

 

The RX in Japan also has an option to get LED headlights while it is only a option for the hybrid here. Is that what he is pointing out?

 

I think so....maybe be standard thru the line next year?

 

that looks awesome, is there anyway to order that ofr my 2012 rx350? i think right now it has the hid lights

 

Will they fit and work correctly on 2012 Lexus RX 350 with HID headlights?
I mean does LED version have AFS system or not?

 

the pictures no longer work. im trying to figure out what type of bulb i have so i can order replacements

is there another way to find out?

 

See what in these videos looks like what you have
Then you can always use these to narrow it down and select replacements. HID bulbs look very different from the back and you will need to see the video to replace them. Never touch the bulb glass with bare skin as the skin oil will transfer, cause a hot spot and make the bulb burn out faster.

At HID Concept click on lamp assemblies for the vehicle selection part

The above sites have menus to identify the correct bulbs for your vehicle.

If you want further help from the forum, you need to identify the model year of your RX.

 

the video doesnt work.
xenondepot just offers led but doesnt tell me if i have halogen currently.
hidconcept wants me to pick if i have/want halogen or hid but doesnt tell me what i currently have
autozone offers 99% halogen and 1 hid. does that mean i have halogen?

i have a 2013 fwd

 

Go to www.youtube.com and search RX350 headlight bulb replacement. There are lots of videos. Pay attention to the views inside the engine compartment to see the difference between HID and Halogen. On HID your bulbs probably have self-leveling, so when you turn them on you can see the light rise up then settle down. It may also turn when you turn, but I think they removed that feature in 2013.

What other options are on your car? NAV?

 

thanks for your help. i went to parts.lexus.com and it asked for year, model, and vin, and it says i have HID lights
