Replying to: volvojoe (Mar 04, 2007 10:26 am) I had the same trouble when my 2005 was new, I had to threaten to sue them before they fixed it. Now at 36,000 miles the lights have dipped again, the dealer is stalling the fix eventhough they have a record of it being done before. My Volvo dealer is pretty bad and only does what he has to do. anyway, there is a software patch, just keep on them

I am considering buying bulbs from costco for about $43 a pair. I don't know if it is the size 9005 or id it will work.

I have had my Volvo serviced at which time I complained about the headlights are aimed too low. The dealer said they ran updated software and cleared all the headlight codes and that should fix it. The lights are still too low and the dealer is saying they will check but if they don't find anything then there is nothing they can do. I have heard that the lights are in sleep mode and the computer is not recognizing them. Can this be fixed? What can I do? Replies to this message: cjanfils (Apr 21, 2009 10:52 pm)

Replying to: 66chevelle (Apr 21, 2009 8:40 pm) Well, in the meantime, I got a solution from my dealer and after having collected some info on the web. Probably they did a software upgrade with the lights NOT turned on while it should have been turned on. This is the reason. They did it again with the lights turned on.   If this does not fix the problem, there is a manuel solution to fix this. Here are the pics I got from another owner : http://s60r.fadainc.com/pics/adjust_headlight_switch.jpg http://s60r.fadainc.com/pics/adjust_headlight_wrench.jpg my 50 cents

I would like brighter low beams for my wife's 2006 S60. She has halogen lights and I've heard Sylvania Silverstars are very good. I found Sylvania 9005SU SilverStar Ultra High Performance Halogen Headlights but they are for high beams. Does anyone know of a replacement bulb for low beams that gives improved performance over the OEM headlight?   I thought of replacing with an HID xenon headlight kit but they are not legal in the US and I don't want to go there.   Regards,   Bob
