Fog Lights
 
The past few days I have noticed that when my automatic headlights come on, my fog lights come on as well. How do I "unselect" this feature besides turning the fogs off manually everytime?

You have automatic HL's, or do you mean daylight running lights?

In my 02, I have to turn on the fogs every time I want them even if I keep my HL on auto. i thought this was the same for all MYs, or did this change?

I do not have the daytime running lights feature activiated. (I think the dealer is the only person that can activate them). I do have the headlight selector positioned all the way to the left on auto mode.

I WISH my fogs came on automatically

May I ask why?

I see every day a lot BMWs (and other cars) running with fogs and I personally do not understand this...why people are using theis fogs in clear daylight, in sunny California ;)

I have never used them here, only couple of times in very bad weather in Finland. This is just my opinion, it does not bother me....:rofl::rofl:....I am just curios to hear the reason :thumbup:

I use them at night, not during the day

I've noticed a lot of people with fogs on too. I've only used my a handful of times with very bad weather or sometime going through some of the dark canyon roads for the extra light. Outside of that, I just never had a need. Maybe people just think it looks cool? I really don't know, I've wondered why too, but never gave it much thought.

I love the look of Fog Lamps at night, esp on the X5
