RRS 2010 TDV8 Xenon leveling problem

Hi

I suspect that my RRS has no automatic leveling system ( Valeo AFS Headlights ) . At start up xenon "dance" is only very little horizontal movement and zero vertical movement. Can anyone check this in his 2010 RRS?
I also find following photo on one of a polish lighting tuner website. Guy is surprised that there is any hight adjustment motor inside RRS lamp...

Do you not have a label similar to this on top of headlamp unit?, should tell you which type of lamp you have.

To the polish guy. These have air suspension so it doesn’t need vertical adjustment

I think the AFS does adjust the h/lamp vertically based on speed of vehicle, don't know if it is the same motor used by the self levelling of the air suspension in some way though, although I think I could be getting the horizontal and vertical aspects of the AFS muddled up.

Yes I have a similar sticker ( Valeo AFS cornering EU SPEC ).

I also have L322 and although it has an air suspension it also has xenon leveling as well as many other cars.

Probably all RRRS with Valeo Headlamps do not have auto leveling because they don't even have motor inside the lamp.





Maybe someone can confirm that? The easiest way is to check if light goes up and down on start up.

Regards
