Yes, thats normal if you have Adaptive Headlights.

That's right Sportman, if your headlights move as you start up your vehicle they are adaptive.

As for people who keep flashing you as you drive towards them, do what I do and flash them back. They soon realise that you are already on dipped headlamps once you have burnt out their retina.

Happened to me with the RRS and also with my Beemer... it seems there's very little education out there in driverland about the fact that a lot of new cars have these new fangled Xenons. I do what TB says actually anfd flash them back... ok, so it might make them veer off the road into a hedge, but at least they'll know the error of their ways!

I try not to flash people, however recently have noticed the increase in people using their fog lights all the time - clearly they dont realise so I just flash them as a public duty

I have adaptive headlights. Does that mean that the high beam are adaptive too? I can't seem to tell.

fog lights ..when I use the auto lighting mode the fog lights are staying off? when the fog light has to turn on in automatic mode? helppppppppppppp
regarding the lights aligments I feel the right side is much higher than the othe side..is there any way to correct by my self of let dealer deal with it during first service 2007 Range Rover Sport Supercharged, Buckingham Blue, Ivory converted to HST Silver

for a LHD car that seems right, unless it's abnormally high...

I travel to Belgium monthly so have to change over my (adaptive) Xenon headlights on the Eurotunnel train. Before I learnt this trick, I was forever being flashed by the frogs! (I asked my stealer how to do it but they didn't really know but the guys at the LR day at Gaydon knew how).

The owners handbook shows you how to do this but it is really tricky! You may want to check that yours have been set to UK setting (headlight change-over levers are both up for adaptive Xenon lamps in UK mode) It's finally gone! Replaced with BMW 730SE in Sophisto grey Xirallic finish with Oyster (Ivory) and black interior. DAB, Climate glass, Ceramic iDrive and gear selector, power boot and iPhone Bluetooth pack - luvvin' it!

I miss my old RRS "bucket" rattling around but it just had to go!

Thanks for the tip Peter. Mine are not adaptive, but the stealer did admit today that "lots" of RRS owners complain they get flashed due to headlights. The bulbs are extremely bright by normal xenon standards, I can always spot a RR coming towards me, and mounted high. So, other than have them adjusted unnecessarily low, it's a simple case of bol ocks to other motorists and just get on with it!!!

Just flash them back, watch the paint on their cars begin to smoulder, they wwont flash a RR again

You know , its on eof the great things about RR in general , great headlights.
