Hey everyone..new here and need some assistance. I checked under the hood tonight to try and figure out how to adjust my low beams (they dont project outward very far and there is a dark shadow) tough to explain, but I am sure other S40 owners know what I am talking about. In looking at the light, I was able to take that out but I couldnt figure out what knob I was supposed to turn to adjust the headlamp. There was a small yellowish hex covered by a black tabbed cover which was about 5mm maybe? I dont want to fiddle with anything until I know for sure what I have to turn. haha Thanks. :) |

Update: I had the local Volvo dealership attempt to raise the low beams twice. The second visit they told me that the drivers side housing has a stripped screw so they cannot adjust it. The only thing to do is to replace the headlight housing for $750.00. :haha: WOAH. Anyone have a '05 drivers side headlight housing they want to sell haha
