I've been driving the Passat 330 Luxury for a while, and adjusting the headlight height is actually quite simple. On the left side of the driver's seat, near the door, there's a rotary knob or button. Turning it allows you to manually adjust the headlight height. Specifically, after starting the car, switch to low beam mode, then rotate the adjuster while checking the light spot position against a wall to ensure it's at the proper height—generally below 1 meter from the ground is safe. I recommend trying it at night because the effect isn't visible during the day. For more precise adjustments, the vehicle system might have an automatic leveling function that compensates for height changes if heavy loads are installed. Remember, setting them too low reduces visibility, while setting them too high can dazzle oncoming traffic, affecting safety. Occasionally, check the overall condition of the lights to prevent other issues.
