2008 Ls600Hl Right Headlight Adjustment

[dwl in TN]

In low beam the right headlight on my 2008 LS600hL has dropped to a noticeable downward position. I had taken it in once years ago for the same thing and it was adjusted some but not completely. It has never been damaged. I actually still have the vehicle under full platinum extended warranty. I would like to find a dealer/repair shop who is familiar with this issue and can completely fix this problem. (I am assuming that this is something I would not be able to do myself).

Location for repair is not a major issue. East of the Mississippi is preferable. I haven't got a lot of confidence in my local dealership for various reasons.

By the way this has been a GREAT car! On one road trip I got just over 29 miles per gallon.

Automatically leveling headlight systems on vehicles made by Toyota are incredibly reliable so I doubt that you will find an independent repair shop that is familiar with the system. If you don't like your current Lexus dealer, I recommend that you try another one. The problem could be caused by something as simple as a defective auto-leveling motor but it could also be something more complicated such as a headlight ECU. I'm looking at parts diagrams and retail price lists for your headlights and see prices of over $5,000 for only one complete headlight unit!
