MY 10 TDV8 Luxury Headlights

[2nd Rower]

Are the Headlights on a TDV8 Luxury all the same - or were there different types / Options available?

[Laurie]

I believe that AFS (Adaptive Front Lighting - lights move with the steering wheel for corners etc.) was an option ! Most people who have it, think highly of it.

Do non-AFS lights have working cornering lights? I find the cornering lights useful but my previous D4 with non-AFS bi-xenons didn't have them.

Thanks

I can't seem to log into Topix. Would somebody else mind looking and telling me what headlights my car came with? The VIN is:

SALLMAM23AA331149

[Laurie]

According to Topix you have :


ADAPTIVE-XENON HEADLAMPS

and

CONTINUOUS VARIABLE DAMPING


So that's a good win !

If you send me a PM I can email you the complete readout.

Topix? What is topix?

Adaptive headlights are great at low speed, especially when scanning the paddock for a fox or looking around.

Apparently 2010+ cars can have the cornering lights, if not fitted with AFS, BUT they can be enabled/disabled via CCF. I don't know if they were a standard Australian Spec or not [bighmmm]

The D4 non-AFS lights didn't have the globe holders nor the wiring + connector inside the assembly.

I unwittingly changed the speed at which my L322's cornering lights are switched on from 40 kph to 60 kph using my Faultmate, thinking I was increasing the steering angle before they switch on. However I'm not game to set the speed back because my IIDtool doesn't have the facility and I've changed a lot of CCF values using the IIDtool which may be lost if the Faultmate is used to change anything.

Thanks heaps Laurie.

I thought CVD was standard on MY10 onwards?!

[2nd Rower]

Also where are the part numbers on the headlights. There are numbers on top of my headlights but none look like part numbers?

[2nd Rower]

Thanks for the report Laurie...

Curious what Special value pack E is...?

[Laurie]

Don't quote me but it think it was standard on both 2010 Autobiography models, and a option on the others same as the Dual View screen. CVD was standard on all the 4.4 TdV8 models. The 2010 headlights had a grey interior colour, the latter models had black interior. LR13008A ???
I have not been able to find out what Special value pack E is ? Been trying for a couple of years, know one seems to know ![bighmmm]

CVD standard on all MY11/12.
