This is getting a bit annoying now - I am consistently getting flashed at night by other drivers who seem to think that I have my full beam on (obviously I don't). It happens every time I drive at night.

Is it possible that my Adaptive LED's need adjusting after having ACS springs fitted to my F31 335? I have also noticed my headlights appear to illuminate the roadsigns which also seems odd and they do seem quite "high".

Interestingly with the adaptive high beam assist on I seem to get flashed less.

Anyone else had this issue? I am considering getting them checked somewhere .... The car was built May 2019 F31 335xd MSport Touring

You need to lower them if you have acs fitted - easy to do - you tube has some answers

I had my ones adjusted as part of the fitting with ACS

Does this look right?

for Mulgari then (who fitted them)

Same happened to me. Previously well adjusted dipped beam was (obviously) way too high following fitment of lowering springs.
Simple adjustment with an Allen key sorted it, as per many other threads on here, couldn't quite believe they hadn't checked it out though.

I had a complete headlamp unit replaced under warranty at a BMW dealer, and still had to take it back to get the alignment adjusted.

I can kind of see why someone fitting new suspension may overlook headlamp alignment, but not a BMW dealer replacing the headlamp.

Out of interest, where did you get the springs fitted?

And does your car have adaptive dampers?

[Lorcan]

It's in the AC Schnitzer fitting instructions. I have heard that adaptive LEDs have a habit of resetting themselves though, even after adjustment. I'm sure Mulgari would happily readjust them for you.

If they dropped the front and rear the same amount then surely the headlights would stay the same? Or do the ACS springs lower the back more than the front?

Measured by myself. -18mm front, -30mm rear. Hence the upward inclination after fitment compared to before.
