So, I love the look of the LED angel eyes of the M235i. However, I got used to driving with my headlights on the auto selector. I noticed the other day that this means the stupid outside headlights are always on (when in auto mode).

Is there a way to have only the LED portion on while in auto mode, either through coding or some setting I am missing?

Thanks

I think I saw this option in the spreadsheet pickachu made.

Sorry, it's for corona ring brightness when headlamps are on. They are set low by default and can be set to full brightness.

I noticed this too, the pic in my sig is in daylight and the headlamps are on. Maybe this is set in idrive instead? I can't check, no car yet.

Yeah, the only way I can figure out how to make the lights stay off but rings on is by turning off the lights.

I leave my lights on auto and my headlights are not always on. They only turn on when it's dark.

I think there is a DRL checkbox on the idrive lighting setting... my headlights are also off unless it's dark

Maybe the light sensitivity is just set really low (dark tolerance). I could configure that in my Audi in the MMI, but I don't see that in the BMW settings.

Pik - is there a coding setting for the tolerance for darkness? My auto lights come on even in my well-lit garage.

not that i know but there might be something... it's just not very popular so people usually don't bother looking for it as it takes quite some times to discover new codes
