You know that little dial next to a car's light select knob, apparently it's supposed to level the headlights if you've loaded the car up.

Does that actually work on anyone's car?

It's just that on every car I've driven, this little dial never seems to do anything. I think on mine it's supposed to connect to a little servo motor, but that's not something I noticed when changing the lightbulbs last year.

It's annoying because I've just blinded a million people driving home with a heavy load earlier.



In b4 my Butler informs me that it's functioning perfectly correctly on the Bentley
 
OK, I thought maybe this was one of those adjustments that was so minor that I perhaps wasn't seeing it, but given that last night my lights were pointing at the tops of hedges then it really must be noticeable. S0ds law it's been broken on my other cars too.

Replacement servo seems cheap enough anyway, thanks for the feedback guys :)
