cesc Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 Evening chaps Got a strange question here, but do the auto levellers on the UK Zed's headlamps move visibly on startup? Meaning do they look a bit like the video below? Or are they the older style versions which only move the beam slightly? I've seen a local Zed which I like the look of, but the headlights seem static when you start them, and in every car I've had with xenons they do the whole dramatic sweep like in the video. Anyone shed some light ( ) on this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spursmaddave Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 My Mazda used to do this, the Zed does not... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoogyRev Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 Not noticed mine doing that, although I do have xenons which are self levelling Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cesc Posted January 15, 2011 Author Share Posted January 15, 2011 Thanks for the quick replies. At least I know now it's not a fault with the system. I suppose I shouldn't be surprised that a car with a cassette deck has an antiquated levelling system Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoogyRev Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 I can lend you an old "garage/Rave" tape if your feeling like you need to use the tape deck...... or just do the ipod hack Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clarkie34 Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 They don't do the level thing on start up.Think they only level under load,the back end drops under acceleration so the lights then level. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
