Ssangyong Musso headlights throw short in low beam

Car: Ssangyong Musso
Variant: XLV
Model Year: 2019

Categories: Electrics, ECU, Warnings & LightsSteering, Suspension, Brakes, Wheels & Tyres

The headlights are poor in low beam. We have added the SsangYong Factory suspension upgrade and since then the rear of the car has been lifted slightly and this has made the originally poor low beam headlight throw even shallower. When the issue was raised with the Dealer - the answer is they are not adjustable, you just have to live with it.

Had the same issue - get the garage to test the lights against a standard vehicle - NOT mot test - test the beam pattern against a wall. Tape the light throw pttern on a new Musso and then compare to yours - think you will find that you probably have bad reflector settings in the headlight units and the only thing that fixed mine was a replacement of both units! hope it helps.

If the new light units have been improved and are better on the new model , that WOULD explain it but not very good for the customer if he has is out of pocket because of bad design
