Headlights. Drivers side seems to be stuck on bright?

not sure if this is the issue but try changing the switch position. I had this happen in another Euro car because of the position wasn't quite on the right spot on the switch. The other thing it could be is that one headlight is higher up(as it should be). the passenger side headlight is higher so as not to blind oncoming traffic.

Look at the difference with the light pattern up against the wall in high beam and low beam. If one doesn't change then the high beam module might be stuck/malfunctioning and you'll need to take her in. Hopefully you're under warranty.
