Re: Lights interior & exterior

You don't say if you have LED or normal halogen headlights. If you're getting flashed on low beam get the dealer to check alignment or if the car is loaded adjust the beam height yourself using the thumb wheel control for headlight range. I have the normal halogen headlights & think they are set...

Re: On not getting the car I ordered - Interesting update.

Re: Dashlights not working
