Yes they swivel around and as I read are auto levelling, but to me they are set to low on dip beam so I guess I will just have to live with that ?

I also find the light output on dip beam to be poor so would like to upgrade the LED’s if such a thing is possible ?

Any thoughts out help appreciated .

They aren't set low, that's just how the LEDs are. They're also a flat beam and don't kick up on the left, which is why we don't need to use beam deflectors if driving on the continent.

I would doubt it very much to be honest, but even if it's possible it'd be very costly. The light unit is sealed so you can't get to individual LEDs, and I believe a like-for-like replacement is over £1,000. Then you'd have a cost on top for the upgrade - if it could be done at all.

Thanks for that and so it looks like I will just have to live with how they are.

They might be adjusted incorrectly too low. Get your local garage/dealer to check and adjust them.

Yes I did wonder if they could be altered (height) as to me they are set to low.

Is that a garage job or something I could tackle myself ?

I think they all seem to low, when I first got mine I found it difficult to drive in the dark and decided I would get them altered but I've got used to them now and don't really notice it. They must be set like that for a reason 👍

You can do it yourself if you have level ground and something you can aim your lights against. The headlight as a whole is adjusted (both dipped and high beams together):
