Non-adaptive xenons do have auto-leveling feature. What they lack from the adaptive ones are that they don't turn and they don't have cornering beams.

RE: Xenons vibration

My xeons also feel like they are in 'flimsy' mountings as they bounce over bumps. I also have. BMW which doesn't do the same.

RE: Xenons vibration

It is a feature of Bi Xeons although my current generation RRS2 doesn't do it anywhere near as much as any of my previous RRS's, FFRR's and Evoques fitted with adaptive or ordinary BiXenons. I now have a set of after market LED headlights on my 20 year old Defender and they also vibrate a bit but I put that down to the Defender's suspension rather than any feature of the headlights which BTW are absolutely wonderful - sufficiently bright when on with dipped beam as DRL's in the daytime that I can see the light reflecting back from road signs from quite a distance back and sometimes get flashed by on coming drivers............. dazzling in the daylight? I've had them checked out and alignment is spot on so it must be their intensity. Transforms night time driving too and no more blown lamps!

A Pangea Green New Defender 110 First Edition is now sitting on my drive alongside British Racing Green Electric Mini Cooper SE Level 3. After 21 years in my hands my TDI300 90 was handed on to the next custodian on 15 July 2022.

RE: Xenons vibration

So I noticed my headlight screws were loose. I tightened them up and the vibration is almost gone from the light.
