Off to France in 2 weeks. I have just looked through the handbook but before I call the dealer in the morning does anyone know what I need to do reference adjusting the headlights for driving in France.
I have the LED's and I cannot find anything? Anyone know?
I can't promise this will work but it does on my M5I have the LED's and I cannot find anything? Anyone know?
Go to the iDrive, look at lights and there's a sub menu for changing the beam from right to left - only when ignition is on, not the engine running.
Should work.

One thing I have found - my driver side rear view mirror no longer dips when I select reverse, yet the near side does. Still fully functions on the buttons though. I wonder how I've managed to disable it?!
Flick the switch that selects which mirror to adjust to the other side

For clarity this was the response from my dealer to taking the car abroad with LED lights, one less job for me!!
The headlights have a flat beam pattern so you won't have issues when you go abroad. On X5's and X6's with their standard xenons you have to change them, but that is largely due to the fact that the source of light is that much higher.

I've got the adaptive LEDs on my 1 series which I know aren't as fancy as the 3 series ones but pretty sure it says in the handbook not to have the headlights set to auto when abroad. Can use the lights normally without any adjustment on all other settings - ie the throw of the beam is fixed.

Just got to say, if anyone is remotely contemplating the MPPK, JUST DO IT!!
Drove through a few tunnels at full bore tonight and the speed / sound combo was immense!! Spine tingling sound. May have to try and capture it on the Go-Pro.
At £1k I don't blame you, but at full retail (£3k ish?) I'm unconvinced...Drove through a few tunnels at full bore tonight and the speed / sound combo was immense!! Spine tingling sound. May have to try and capture it on the Go-Pro.
