Sorry to post a thread about headlights, I am sure the answer will be on another post but I can't get the forum search facility to work ??......

Just had the first night time jaunt in the new, to me, V60.

Whilst the main beam is pretty much spot on the dipped beams seem to be very poor. I have vehicles twice the age of the V60 and they are really good.

The suspect is that the dipped beam may well be the original bulbs, plus they are running all the time maybe they are "tired", so I intend to change them for, perhaps Philips / Osram type night vision versions .

Or maybe the new Osram H7 LED NIGHTBREAKERS...??

Are they just standard type, H7 ???
Heat problems?
Any recommendations?
