I think i might have a small problem or its just me, when im driving at night behind cars the head lights are like bouncing (xenon's self leveling), under acceleration they really drop then come back really high. It getting really annoying. Hard to describe aswell to be honest.

Would you describe them as 'twittering' Nige?

Mine does that i'm told but notice the same when other ST's have been in my mirrors at night.

what's twittering

, i would say constantly moving up and down quickly, even when you just rev it they do it. Never noticed it before.

flickering up and down mate - sounds like it's common to me. When you rev it are you moving or at a standstill?

Unless there's an issue with the linkages or levelling sensors it's down to hardware/software in the levelling module or the headlights and prob inherent to them all.

Mine have done this from day one. Alittle strange at first to get used too

reving stood still pal. i know they flicker slightly but these are like the smallest movement they just start juddering badly. Think i need to go out in another st.

like i said might be just me, not drove it for a while and just never noticed it before which is a little sad, soon as i've had it for over a year

.

 

[gtjunior]

u end up thinking 'thats not right' Iam the same ive been driving a passat 170PS TDI for a week and now ive got mine back it doesnt feel right.

Don't think it's normal for them to do this when the car's stationary.
I do notice a small upward jump in stop start traffic when you brake but that's what I'd expect it to do.

 

[nigst]

All fixed and no twittering or flickering anymore

, thanks to the guys at profile

 

[glennboysst3]

what was the problem with them ??

 

[nigst]

Had some work done in a dealers, never again

, they left the rad not fitted in the locaters and the front bumper was loose

, not a clue why but when i did ask they just said "oh sorry sir but we havn't touched the bumper" nothin but liers. Anyway profile to the rescue and put it right

.
