Adjusting headlight beam (2017 Octavia Estate SE-L)

Featured Replies

Hi all,

 

My 2017 Octavia Estate SE-L needed a new passenger headlight, and the cheapest option I could find at the time (around 18 months ago) was a complete headlight from Germany.

 

I have recently had the car MOT'd (its first MOT) where its now requiring adjustment of the beam. 

Am i right in thinking this is possible? Manually? or via VagCom specialist?

Thanks in advance

It should just be two adjustment screws on the headlight that need moving.

 

I'm surprised the MOT tester didn't do it for you...

Are the screws easily noticeable? Thanks for the info.

Should be...

 

Just as an example, this is an MK3 Octavia headlight and you can see the two white adjustment screws quite clearly:
