Confused with Corona Lights
I purchased a 2008 328XI Sedan with Xenon Headlights as an option.
After reading a bit online, it was my understanding that I could have my lights programmed so that I can have only the "Angel Eyes" lid up as parking lights without having the other lights come on. I turn my parking lights on and I get more than just the corona lights turned on. In my case, the xenons stay off but the inner, non-xenon lights/adaptive lights come on. I was told at my nearest dealership that my year and model could not be programmed. Can someone tell me if this is true or not? If it is true is there a way around this to just have the corona lights come on without he inner light? I apologize, I'm new to this forum, and I have tried to find this answer by search within this section, but I'm still a bit confused as I have not found anyone commenting this 2008 328xi with having the optional xenon package for this year and model. Any assistance or advice would be greatly appreciated. Mike |

Someone might be able to do this remote for you. Try this post in the BMW coding section also.

You can go into your dash settings and turn on your DRL's (day time running lights) you don't need to get them coded to be on.

So your saying I do not need to have anything coded to have my inner-driving lights closest to the grill area deactivated and that will leave my Angel Eyes active?
Here is a picture of what I want turned off. This is the inner-driving light I'm referring to. And I again, apologize, I'm new to this, I've seen other models doing this, I'm just trying to find out if this is possible on the 328xi with the optional xenon lamps. Thanks. Mike |

Go into your iDrive (or use the BC stalk if you don't have iDrive) and turn off the DRLs (the lights that you want deleted). This will turn off all of the lights, including the angel eyes. If you want to drive with your angel eyes as your daytime running lights, use the headlight switch. Either that, coding, or the DAEOS harness.
