Hi fellow Audians!
My A3 headlamps are asymmetrical. Before you say that they're supposed to be, I think mine are wrong...

In the manual, it says that they're designed to light up the near side of the road more intensely as not to dazzle oncoming traffic.

I'm in Australia, we drive on the left, and my right headlamp seems to be focused a lot higher than my left headlamp if I'm facing a wall (about 2m in front).

It's basically exactly like this image (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikiped...raffic.svg.png), except for the fact that I'm on the other side of the road. That image is for right-side drivers like the USA.

How to I adjust the headlamps so they are correct for the left-side drivers?

White, why wouldn't the main dealer be sorting this?


In general, the "flair" should be illuminating the edge of the road for you. So, in the USA, our flair lifts to the right edge of the road. Down under, the flair should be lighting the left side of the road.


I remember a solution with the VCDS cable and a bit of programming. I think some of the cars will have a small lever inside the headlight unit. I really have no idea what you'll find on an A3.


This is how I visualize it in a LHD car:
