Auto Hi-beam setting

Sorry, I know I should have RTFM before posting this, but I just noticed something in the past few days. When I toggle on the auto-hi-beam feature, it doesn't seem to stay on after that. Each day I have to turn it back on again. Is it meant to work that way? In my other car, it stays on until manually turned off.

Yes, it only stays active while the car is running afaik. Kind of annoying.

The fact that is must be enabled manually each time is super annoying! My 550 would remember the setting...

May be able to be coded.
I have to look into that.
I know that it can be coded on previous F-chassis, but headlamp switch have to be manually switched to On, not at Auto position.

Yes, you are right.
I think a simple press on the stalk is much easier than turning the light switch to "On" from "Auto".

Only way is to upgrade to G05 or downgrade to F10.

I don't know the English word. If you turn the steering wheel the lights will follow it. Better light when driving corners. This and all other smart light functions will be disabled when Auto is not selected.
