So my 2005 V50 has HID Xenon headlights. The high-beams are okay, but the low-beams are absolutely miserable in terms of brightness. Sometimes i have to turn them off then on again just to make sure that they're on in the first place, as I can't immediately tell when driving down the road. Every car that comes up behind me overpowers my own beams, and God-help-me if there's oncoming traffic at night--with their headlights on, I can't see a thing!
I've replaced both of the bulbs but of course that did nothing.
-High beams are fine
-Low beams are horrible
-Bulbs are brand new
Any idea what's going on and/or how to fix it?
2005 V50...miserably weak low beams?
