It also caused me to hit a racoon at about 100km/h. I had to switch to lower beam because of incoming trafics and at the time I saw the racoon there is no way I would have time to avoid it. You need to be drivng at a much lower speed to be able to do so because of the way the headlight are configured and this is not acceptable in my opinion for a company such as BMW.
You can adjust the height of your beams. There is a screw on on each headlight that you can turn to adjust the height.
I was not aware. I thought it had to be done via coding. I asked the dealer and they did not want to mess with them and said it could not be adjusted. Anyway my point is that they should come better configured straight from the factory.
