Excuse to hit the alpine passes? Aug 19-29

[ajbh]

If anyone has been looking for an excuse to hit the alps we are heading out 19th to 29th and very happy to meet with folks en route. As we proved with joemax last year its a lot of fun in twos and threes Hitting stelvio on the 22nd, then a couple of days in the italian lakes, then nufenen\furka et al through to the vanoise roads 25th/26th/27th.

Sounds wonderful and great fun.

Having read through your, last year's, thread. Have you sorted the headlight bias? I'm pretty sure, whilst idly going through the settings, there's a headlight setting that switches for left/right driving so no need for sticky labels on the headlights.

Wasnt me with the issue - im happy with the stickies, my manual insists it doesnt need doing but to my eye it does. That menu setting is the adaptive headlight sensor i think (i dont have those) - check in the dark against a wall and i suspect nothing will change in the beam.

OK, give me a mo.

Hmmm! Doesn't appear to alter much against the inside of the garage door, but it is rather close. Will have to try at night from a greater distance.

If it doesn't do anything, why's it there?

[ajbh]

The us forum theory was that it changes where the sensor is 'looking' but that seems odd...

[Aitch]

If it's the auto headlight sensor it's odd indeed as any bias, attachment or otherwise, would only affect dipped beam.

This sounds awesome!
im doing the jag factory tour on the 25th though, and a half marathon on the 28th in Kent.

me and missus have been keen for a euro trip for a long time, but never found anyone to go with. keep us posted if anything else comes up

Move the factory tour and come anyway! You can def be back by the 28th
