What lights come on for high beams? (I have Xenon pkg)
When I turn on the light switch, the low beam xenon lights light up as expected. When I move the turn signal lever to turn on the high beams, the xenon lights adjust and the line of the top of the projected light goes "higher" -- i.e., up the wall of my garage. The inner bulbs (halogen, I guess) never light up when the high beams are activated. Is this right? The inner bulbs don't work as part of the high beams? Or do I have to take this car back to the dealer for some kind of programming? Perhaps they are for DRLs only; I have DRL turned off and will probably leave it that way. I thought the 2005 models only had low beam xenon, not high beam xenon (aka Bi-Xenon). I'm happy to have bi-xenon, but the manual says nothing about it... -pd. |

BMWs have had Bi-xenons since about 2001 or so. Your vehicle uses the outer xenon bulb for both low- and high-beams. The inner bulbs work as flash-to-pass.

Great, thanks, my 2001 E39 has Xenon low and halogen highs, so I guess that was just prior to the switchover.
