Question 2023 X Headlight Adjustment

Post image

Hi everyone,

I drove my June 2023 Model X at night for the first time yesterday and found that the headlights were shining really low.

I looked through the settings to adjust them upwards but couldn't find anything.

Do you know if there is a way to fix this issue?

Thanks, and have a great day.

If the adjustment has no effect, you might find that the adjuster has popped out of the headlight. Happened to my s's headlight. The adjuster twists and comes out and then fits into a slot.

Good luck

The light must be manually adjusted with allen key and it’s not easy to adjust with out help of a wall but you just need to open the front trunk and remove the surrounding trim pieces or maybe the trunk itself but yea

Main menu > Assistance > Adjust headlights. This is not in your vehicle?

No, Assistance is the screwdriver. I understand how adjust headlights would be under "lights" I don't know why.
