Note to Moderator: You may want to make this a Sticky.

 

This is great Stuart, thank you. There's a Mediafire offload site that the moderators have used in the past for parts. It would be great to add these and then add the media fire site to the DIY

But Graham also has this link so maybe adding it to his as its already in the DIY section?

The first link is to the relevant section of the Forum Download area. The second link is to my thread for Workshop Manuals and Electrical Guides. It is NOT for Owner's Handbooks.

I've made this thread another "sticky".

This is a 2010 manual. I notice it has a section for changing the alignment of the headlights for left and right hand driving but that is not on in the 2012 edition (uk) .
is it this still an option/? Anyone done that on a 2013 portfolio?

 

The early European specification XK's had a lever to switch the dip beam direction. I used to use this on my 2007 when touring in Continental Europe. The later models don't require this adjustment as the dip beam pattern is designed to be suitable for both left and right side driving.

Graham
appreciate your early response.

is it unnecessary then to use the stick on AA type headlight correction kit? I did when I went to France last year.

 

No longer necessary to fit "beam benders". Here's the relevant section from the Owner's Handbook:

Again, many thanks.
