Low beams flickering
I’d like to start out saying I’m very new to BMW (got the car 2 days ago)
With that said, I have an issue where my low beams flicker constantly in use, to the point where they effectively aren’t even on. It’s the inside part, not the Halos, that are flickering High beams, fog lights etc all work. Additionally, for some reason whenever I crest a hill, the lights will turn on and work properly for a second before going back to flickering and not working. Both lights are perfectly synced when this happens, which Is why I don’t think it’s a bulb issue Right now if I’m driving at night I have to rely on just the fog lights, and it’s a little sketchy. Looking to figure out the problem and get it fixed ASAP. car is a 2011 335d, |

Sounds to me like a loose wire. If you go up hill and it makes a better contact, then most likely it's a damaged wire.
Have you inspected it in any way? |

The frm is under the driver side dash. Maybe the connection on it isn’t fully seated?
Not sure where the grounds for the lights go to, but could check the ground blocks in the engine bay(almost right behind the lights) to see if they’re loose. Connectors/pins that go into the headlights could not be fully seated. Fault lights switch? Is this on “auto” switch position? |
