Question
Manually Adjust the height of my C4 or DS4 headlamps Halogen or Xenon Discharge
Answer
All variant C4's have the same headlamp units, Coupe, Hatch, DS4, C4 Picasso and Grand Picasso.
Depending on model (there may be slightly differing layouts):
If you remove any covers around the headlamps (washer bottle, air box depending on the model) you will see on the inner, rear edge of the headlamp a white piece of plastic sticking out about 1.5"
You can turn that manually by hand.
The other is on top of the light unit and needs a Hex (allen) key to turn it.
Halogen headlight:-
HID Xenon Discharge headlight:-
For the NEW C4 Picasso Range the adjusters are in a different location:

Question
Manually Adjust the height of my C4 or DS4 headlamps Halogen or Xenon Discharge
Answer
Hi Guys, I was wondering if any of you C4 techy's can advise me on how to adjust my dipped headlamps on my C4 coupe, I noticed that it has some kind of "Hex" adjuster, do I need special tools to do this with and where can I buy these ?
The elec adjuster is at its default setting which is "0" its just when I'm driving at night I feel that my dipped beam is slightly low and wondered if I could do this adjustment myself or pay a garage a fortune instead?

Here is a picture of the Offside (drivers) headlamp.
The vertical adjustment is by a 6mm Allen key, the other adjustment for the horizontal can be seen at the rear, as a hex head screw of approx. 6mm A/F.
