The only way to really find out is to take your headlight out, open the rear panel behind the projector and take a look inside and shake it around. Check to see what's loose. You might have to throw it in the oven for about 3-4 mins and open up the headlight to get to the projector.

Nothing might not even be wrong with it.

I think its natural to have it like that. But i can be wrong someone else can chime-in.

When im behind cars i see 1 or both do a flicker type when driving.

100% correct sir. Our stiff suspension causes this flicker along with the sharp cut-off we have on the cut-off shield.
