Bad highbeam

The highbeam on the e70 uses the HID, the same one used for the low beam, but moves the reflector to allow full range from the light. The inner bulb is no longer used for the high beam, only for the DRLs and angel eyes.
Are the HIDs not bright enough?

In the US, we have bi-xenons. There is a shutter that is raised inside the low beam projector when the high beams are activated. Hence, we don't really have any use for the inner bulbs, except for DRL and flash-to-pass in the E70 models. |

In that case, it would be difficult to get a response from a US board. Only our outer headlamps come on with low or high-beams. |

Sorry, this is getting off-track, and I still don't have an answer for better highbeams. Perhaps you could adjust the height of the headlamps manually. There are usually 2 screws at the back of the headlamp unit. |

I have Xenons like I did on previous 535d which had Xenons too. The X5 lights definitely don't light up the road ahead like they did on my 535d. Both cars had adaptive headlights so that's not the difference.
