Hi there, i have an a4 b6 cabriolet and ever cince i boughtit my headlights have been on their lowest setting and i cant adjust them with the hight adjuster inside the car. I tried the manual way by turning the screws in the headlights and the adjusted fine but as soon as started driving they dropped back to low again!!!!! I have scanned with VCDS and no faults are showing. It had a new genuine audi headlight fitted before i bought it, i have pulled both headlights out and everything is plugged in as it should be. Car doesnt have xenons just normal bulbs. Is their some sort of recalibration that has to be done when a new light is fitted? Cheers
 
Cab headlights are different to the others, but on mine they have an adjuster in the back inside the bulb cover, these are prone to coming loose from the adjustment mechanism. It's worth a look.
