Maybe it's only me that's being sensible then? Maybe it's only me who knows the law? How can you have something that is automatic without any consideration with other road users? Switching to high beam should - or even MUST - be a conscious decision. Switching to high beam is awful to anyone in the beam who could be on the road without enough light to be recognised by an automatic car full beam. Thank goodness I've not encountered this automatic system yet. Hopefully, the car drivers locally who have this facility have disabled it. I still say it should be banned. Mick.

Not exactly cheap, but - https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Toyota-Yaris-1999-2005-headlight-bulb-rubber/182967147531?hash=item2a99b11c0b:g:TYUAAOSwsXFZKf2D

Had the car back for about a week, waited to test the car befor updating again. All my issues have finaly been resolved, it did end up costing me a bit of money and the car going to local toyota dealer. In my case the final issue came down to the valvamatic controller assembly (PNC222A0 in image provided by Konrad) I did find this part for sale on ebay for a new part it was going to cost £995 at the time, today the same part was available new on ebay for £844.95. I also found scrap yards for the part but they could not assure the millage and they ranged from £400 - £755. I paid £1300 in total for the job, thats includes collecting, diagnostics, replacing the part and return of car. its more than the part and self installing but buy this time I just needed the car to be fixed and I was not 100% sure which part of the car was the issue. anyhow now its all fixed, I am a happy driver of my Toyota Avensis and I even got the old part back from Toyota so I will be having a disasemble and look at it see what went wrong and if it fixable. Thank you to all who post here it realy does help people and a big thank you to Konrad for the time and effort you have provided.
