Trout, I havn't tried them yet, will do next time I'm out in the dark.
Love the LED headlights they are really good, dipped and main beam.

Noddy, this might be of interest regarding GPF’s (Gasoline Particle Filters) vs AdBlue - Dave

Interesting read. The Euro 6 trucks we had at a place I used to work at had the regeneration system & adblue. Not surprised they are working on particle filters on petrol engines too now.DaveBerlin wrote: ↑Fri Dec 21, 2018 10:07 pm Noddy, this might be of interest regarding GPF’s (Gasoline Particle Filters) vs AdBlue - Dave

They're not spotlights - rather foglights.
I've never owned a car with foglights I've found to be of any use.
And since you HAVE to use headlights in conditions of bad visibility their previously intended use - to avoid reflections in fog by having them on without headlights - is redundant.

Regarding the comment from Gloucester regarding “Spotlights” and “Foglights”, what we have on the QQ are classed as “Foglights” as he mentioned. This attachment might help to clear points on Lighting, well at least I hope so - Dave

Had a 2017 1.5 dci Accenta premium with pan roof and vision pack. Now have 2020 1.3 Tekna .
Had a dark 100 mile drive this morning, mainly single track roads, a good chance to try the lights out.
Dipped beam - excellent
Main Beam - really not very good, could hardly tell they were on, made the trip quite difficult at times
Foglights - no use at all (it wasn't foggy tho) added nothing for normal driving

I had that idea also about the highbeams at first but when you are on a real dark road it is good.
I have the idea that dipped beam is already so bright that the high beams seem not that bright.
