I'm glad to report I have had my issue fixed today.
The other week I noticed a new Suzuki dealer in Rochdale (Premier Suzuki) used to be a Mazda garage. I called in to make sure they were a fully authorised dealer with full Suzuki diagnostic software and they assured me they were. The guy I was talking to seemed pretty interested in my problem and explanation. He even asked he he could have a look at my car in the car park.
He said they would charge me 30 minutes labour and if it took a bit longer it didn't matter, he also said they'd pop it in the MOT bay and check the headlight alignment afterwards. Jimny was duly booked in for today.
Good to their word they did it, he got a couple of blokes to sit in the back after to test it as well
Headlights re-aligned as promised!
I marked a line on the inside of the garage door to the light beam with the boot empty, been for a drive around in the dark, headlight aim is much higher now (I must have over done it when I lowered them before). I came back, loaded my fridge and pull-out table back in, added my SDS drill box, socket set and a bag of cement. Parked back in the garage and headlight beam is still sat on the mark I made
I know previously the light beam would have been an inch above the line.
So a successful day for me.
