In this brief guide, we will see the instructions that will allow us to adjust the height of the front headlights of the Audi Q5 in simple steps. First, let's position the vehicle in front of a fixed reference point, preferably in low light; then we turn on the front headlights and open the hood, as shown in the video.

At this point, we use a hex key to adjust the height of the headlight assembly by tightening or loosening the screw found above it; the important thing is to ensure that both front headlights are at the same height, finally adjusting the lights using the automatic adjustment feature inside the cabin.
