Default Driver's side headlight is brighter than the passenger side

question reposted... with update:

I noticed that my driver's side (left) headlight was brighter than the other. The dealer told me that it's normal that there is a slight difference. Is that true? They told me they adjusted it, but I'm still noticing the difference in intensity. Any ideas?

Did a search and found a number of individuals with similar "problem"...no real resolution to this issue noted however.


update

- just recently upgraded to euro projector headlights...reaimed and still the problem existed

- upgraded the past week to phillips hids (xenons) (thanks to kennyc ;^) ) and reaimed the lights a second time (as per the stern lighting web page), and the driver's side is still brighter!!


any and all help would be greatly appreciated.

Default Do you have HID's?

Osram bulbs and Philips bulb have a slightly different temperature rating on their bulbs.
