Headlight problems.. :(
My passenger side headlight had a intermittent problem where it will not ignite.. it will be off then if it turn off the light switch on and off back and forth, it will come on. So I took it to the dealer and it's been 16 days now.
They thought it was the ignitor/control module and ordered the parts from germany which took forever because they don't make too many of those parts anymore.. Dealer installed them but now both headlight would not come on at all. Did any one have a similar problem? This is a '07 M coupe and it is still under warranty but it is annoying that the dealer cannot find the problem and now they are waiting for a bmw tech to come out. I am missing all the good weather.. I hope they don't blame the issue on my intake |

I had the same problem. with the passenger side headlight as well. Replaced the hid bulb and never had the problem again. Dont think it has anything to do with the controller.

Yeah they already tried the bulbs long time ago..
Got a call today.. BMW tech told the dealer to replace everything until the problem is fixed. they will be putting two new headlamps two new ignitors, two new controllers etc.. Hope that fixes it.. |

Got the car back.
They replaced all parts related to front lights. They could never figure out what was wrong.. but the headlights are working now.. Been driving an automatic for 3 weeks and need to get used the the manual shift.. |
