SO so so much happier with these headlights after manually leveling them!

The speed at which the lights turn will vary from slowest to quickest. Switch from Eco to Race and you'll easily notice a difference. I keep my lights in race; I've enjoyed how they change directions almost instantly with my steering input to better light the road ahead.
I think a few people asked in this thread if the manual adjustments actually make a difference, and I can confirm what other's have stated...using tape measures today, the manual adjustments change the center height of the self-leveling/adaptive system. It makes logical sense because even under the best of manufacturing conditions, both the headlight units and chasis will vary slightly, requiring the ability for manual adjustments to ensure proper, legal, alignment. About 1.5 turns for my setup seems to keep it within the guidelines for adjusting headlamps. For sure, VW went conservative and had them a bit lower.
Well balanced and smooth at any speed. Tires are in great shape with almost new thread depth.
I've got the TTRS brakes on my mk6. Good OEM+ option for you mk6 and mk7 guys. Direct bolt on. They help out a lot on the track. Stoptech pads for street and carbotech xp10 on track. EVO and STI pads fit as well.
From what I've read, the Indy 500s are superior to my stock tires in every way and are also $70/tire cheaper.
Go to the end of this thread and go back and look at my posts. I have a full walkthrough of mounting my dash cam
my 17-yo, 168k Golf 2.0 gets 5/30 full synthetic and either WIX or Bosch filters.
Yes forgot to mention mine only started this when switching over to carbotech pads. Stock pads I never saw this issue.
My front pads were noisy, kept the front wheels covered in dust and suffered from crystallisation due to severe driving conditions (temperature, humidity and slopes). The noise began at 1500mi and now at 6800mi it is so loud that it can be heard from 60ft away.
