Hi all, I replaced all the main beam and dipped beam bulbs with Philips XtremeVision bulbs as the previous owner put in cheap bulbs that were of a different colour/poor quality. Was fine for the first 10 miles, then I got a message "Side/daytime lights fault" constantly popping up at random...

So, another day of 8 series ownership, another challenge presents itself! Last weekend I took the 8 on its longest voyage yet - a 4 hour, 230 mile trip up north setting off at 7pm. I started off with sidelights, then switched on the headlights as I hit the motorway. All was well. After about...

Hi guys, New here and been a while since I worked on a car so quite new to modern car systems, please bear with me. However I'm a skilled electronic engineer.

Hi, I'm getting "Vertical Aim Control Failure" popping up on the dash on my F30 (halogen headlights), both headlights don't auto level on startup anymore and the manual adjustment wheel no longer works. After removing the headlight and shorting some of the pins you can hear the motor making a...

Just a quick one guys. I just installed some LCI halogen headlights in my pre-LCI car and was wondering about the headlight beam aim. I'll get them checked just to make sure they are pointing correctly (vertical and horizontal aim). The question is where exactly should that height control...

I think my partners 206 headlights are a little dim and seem to be low! i have bought some extreme bulbs for her, but how do i check they aim where they should!? Also can i check my 2000 323 is aiming correct too? and can they be adjusted?

My drivers side headlight has stopped adjusting when my lights are set to auto and I turn on the ignition. The passenger side headlight moves down, then up when the auto lights come on. The passenger side light also moves up and down when I adjust the vertical height from within the cabin. What...
