I'm surprised that this topic hasn't been discussed before - I've searched but no-one seems to have brought it up.
I'm not impressed with my headlights, particularly the main beam.
I travel along the M180 in Lincolnshire frequently which is an unlit motorway & am disappointed in the projection of the main beam.
I have a Skoda Octavia, my wife has a Yeti & both would literally blind the jag.
I've previously had Volvos which, again have so much better headlights than the F.
Does anyone else find this?
Poor Headlights
It'd help if you gave us vehicle details, so we know whch headlights you're talking about. I haven't had a problem with the LED lights on my MY18.

No problem with mine.
If you’re comparing with saloons or SUV’s they will appear less effective as they are sat so much lower.

It's an MY13 with xenon lights.
Some time ago I had a 2007 Volvo with xenon's, these were some of the best headlights I've ever driven with, like driving behind searchlights.
I know that xenon's degrade after a few years but mine are still bright white.
Wonder if I can upgrade to LED's?

Strewth - it's got a loud button
Mines a 2017 with xenon dips. But the main beam as I am aware are just halogen lamps. The xenon stays on & the extra halogen comes on at main setting. Could be wrong. Will have a look later.
