Probably a FAQ but how do the superb adaptive lights work?

Is one of the lights swivelling within the cluster or is the voltage being increased to an inactive lamp?

I've tried to figure it out tonight but as it's -6 the Mrs wasn't keen on coming outside to help!

there are little motors in the headlight unit that move the projector to whichever way you are going.. ... - .- -.

^^ We're talkin' FFRR's here, they are not all the same I'll rephrase that, they all like to malfunction in different ways, other wise this forum would be a very boring place

I was being ironic

I cannot remember ever seeing a defunct Adaptive motor

Many Bi-Xenon flapper motors though

This working adaptive light fault is worse than I thought........ Still they don't work on my '53 model FFRR  Yesterday I couldn't spell Engineer... Today I are one!

Ahhhhh, now sir! "Ah hum" they are not adaptive lights but self levelling... Adaptive were not available until the 06my facelift (with the different headlamps)

But yes you are correct... 95% of the 02-06 levelling systems do NOT work! 75% of them left the factory without an ECU

On my 2006 there is extra bulbs in the side lamps that come on when turning the steering wheel very good in dark areas

^ took mine out cos they annoyed me.. ... - .- -.

Question - 2007MY (56 plate) TDV8 Vogue - Bi-Xenon lights, first L322 (of 4) I've owned that doesn't do the Clarence the Cross Eyed Lion impression on start up so assume no adaptive or self levelling in the units? Land Rover Addict

do the headlights 'turn/follow' the road when you do ...and if you have the headlight control on auto then they should dance, providing you do have them.. ... - .- -.
