Hi - I just purchased a 2005 XC70 in Vancouver, Canada and I am a bit confused with the high and low beam. I just replaced the low beam bulb, as there was a message saying that it was out. It was an expensive D2R bulb.

Now that I have that in the car, and looking at the lights more closely, I see that the normal bulb that is in the high beam does not come on / is not used.

Foe high beam, what seems to be happening is that the low beam angles up / get brighter.

Is this normal?

(Apologies for the simple / confused question - this just has me puzzles as to why there is a 'high beam' bulb that would not ever be used / come on)
