Today driving back I hit a real nasty pot hole.
I noticed there after the beam of my headlights was odd. On dipped beam long range (range) of the beam had decreased and the lights were aimed at the ground. On full beam normal (for full beam) illumination seemed as normal, but the dipped beam aims straight for the ground.
I suspect the balast for the self levelling of the beam is cuput. Whats the likely cost for me as its off to the dealer (sadly not Glasgow as they'd just nick someone elses lights and give them to me) on Monday. Its perfectly safe to drive at night, but its very annoying.
