Hi with these dark nights I have noticed that our new car Al's dipped headlights make driving on unlit roads stressful. I have tried raising the dipped aim with the dash controls but still there is complete darkness! Beyond the twenty yards or so lighted tarmac even cats eyes are not lit and it is not always possible to use main beam. I am thinking of going to the dealers and get them checked but it could be that the lenses are very good and do not leak any light beyond the legal limits, quite unlike a lot of cars with their dazzling high intensity lighting! (BMW) flooding the road for miles and blinding those of us coming the other way.
 
I have to lower my dipped lights as there too high , other road users think I am driving around with my mainbeam on!! Maybe your bulbs are not seated right ?
 
I've found the bulbs that Fiat fit as standard are quite dim and have upgraded to Philips Xtreme vision ones. The quality of the light is much better now.

I also find the lights are set quite high so I generally have that in position 1 when the car is empty.
 
Hi I have adjusted our cars dipped headlights they were far to low,I will get them checked in the new year by our dealer.I would have thought that they set in the factory or pre delivery inspection.
