Just few questions of m235i

hi everyone I recently got a m235i. I know to hold the traction bottom 3secs to turn full traction off. But I find the car doesn't feel as aggressive as sport+ Also the exhaust sound too and the whole car like it in comfort mode. Do you know how to keep the car in sport+ with no traction control? Or maybe only for the M2.
And also the projector head light. Is the inside projector light just for show? I though it does high beam but try it doesn't seem working. I only got the car for a week and somehow both light always got condensation inside. Do I need to take it for a long drive to burn it off? It's been raining none stop here and about 6c outside.
Thanks

DSC OFF is normal / comfort throttle with sport chassis / exhaust. It is a linear throttle map that is better for the track where this mode is most likely used.

The inside light lens is nonfunctional. So, yes: just for show.

As for the condensation: shouldn't be there. If you bought the car used, inquire about its accident history if you can. If it's new, take it to the dealer and have them look at it. Headlight units should be sealed, particularly the xenons.
