Range Rover sport Headlights too high on dipped beam

Hi everyone. We have been the proud owners of our 14 plate Range Rover Sport, for a couple of weeks now. And only just been out in the dark last night. But we kept on getting flashed by other drivers. Who obviously thought I was on full beam headlights. Which I was not. I can not find a knob/button anywhere that I can lower the beam with. Unlike my now sold Freelander 2 HSE. Which had a roller-type switch for this. So can you advise please? Question
Thanks Dave

Had similar issue but the headlights are pre set
You can lower them manually but tbh not done mine yet

Thanks very much for that link. Looks like a simple easy fix. It would appear that landrover went back a few years by not having electronic adjusters on the dash. Just like my 2011 Freelander 2 had. Who wants mood lighting anyway??? Rolling Eyes Evil or Very Mad Thumbs Up

The FL2 had the adjuster because it's on coil suspension. Put a lot of weight in the back and the lights point high so need adjusting. The RRS is on air which self levels and so doesn't require manual light adjustment with load.

The problem isn't the lack of a switch, it's poor quality control when setting the lights in the factory. 2012 SDV6 - it's missing a couple of cylinders
2008 TDV8 - it was a labour of love and is much missed
