How to adjust the headlights in the Audi A3?

Model: Audi A3 8V, MK 3 - Years 2012-2019
Part: Headlight

In this tutorial, we can see how to adjust the headlights in the Audi A3, a very simple and quick operation. First of all, we position the vehicle in front of a white wall, at least two meters away, then we turn on the low beam headlights and open the hood. We then locate the two adjustment bolts located in the upper area of both headlights, tighten or loosen them with a 6mm hex key, and try to position the light beam at about one meter high. The inner bolt will adjust the beam vertically, while the outer bolt will adjust it horizontally.
