Default Aiming headlights

Hello all. I recently replaced a headlight bulb in my A4 and noticed the driver side headlight is now aimed much lower than the passenger side. Can anyone tell me what I need to do in order to correct this? I'm assuming there is a place where I can use a torx wrench or screwdriver to adjust the height of the lights. Thanks in advance.

Adjust thebulb. If it was fine before you replaced it, the bulb may be in slightly off. Just a little off is big further out the beam. See if it's that. If not the adjustments are the white plastic round things on the top back of the light housing. Remove the plastic cover and use a phillips screw driver to adjust. Check the bulb first though.

The driver side is supposed to be slighty lower than the passenger so it doesn't blind oncoming drivers.
