Q: Recently, I purchased a Flylinktech jump-starter for use with my 2014 Subaru Crosstrek. Is it safe to store a jump-starter with lithium-ion batteries in a hot car? ![]() Once removed, the headlights should adjust in the conventional manner. To access the screws, you need to remove some trim panels over the headlights. In other Lexus models, headlights are adjusted with a scan tool or, in some cases, via in-vehicle technology. Is this headlight adjustable via a computer program? Or, where are the manual adjusting screws located?Ī: According to AllData, the repair database I use, there are two adjusting screws: one for vertical adjustment and one for horizontal adjustment. John, I am willing to spend the $200, but I ask you to confirm that I am not being snookered by everyone who has a personal stake in telling me what is financially beneficial to them. I was advised that they can adjust the headlight using a computer with a program only at a Lexus dealer. I stopped by the Lexus dealer where I bought the car and spoke to the service director, who then spoke to one of the technicians. This sounded a little odd to me, as these are not self-adjusting. I brought the car back to the body shop and asked them to "readjust" the headlight and was told that they are preset at the factory and not adjustable.

This was not a particularly common maintenance procedure until the last few years but has been quite common in Europe for decades. At AAA, we have found it is best to change brake fluid every three years regardless of mileage. ![]() What is the correct answer?Ī: Brake fluid is hygroscopic, which means to "absorb water." Therefore, because brake fluid is hygroscopic, it will tend to absorb water and moisture. My local mechanic is saying this is not necessary given the low mileage. Q: At 13,000 miles, my 2020 Honda CR-V Touring is showing an alert code that I should change my brake fluid.
