follow the instructions. You need some electrical/programming background to understand the procedures.

I do this for a living (not for BMW )
I had to code a F10 last Saturday and the owner asked me to do the same thing but I haven't been able to find this specific setting in the code...

Could you tell me (us) as to what setting, what module and in what CAFD file you found this? (like: FRM > 3050 > HELLIGKEIT_DRL (and yes, I am aware this is not the setting lol).

Please let us know, you would help a lot of people with this

I,ve turned my DRLs off and as you say turn the side lights on when I want some . They are left in auto when off but this semi manual system allows me to have auto and the attractive halos only when I want them.

I think the way the headlight is on with DRL is ridiculous. It can only be that the halogen halo s not bright enough to comply with DRL rules so BMW fix this with full headlight.

Sorry for resurrecting this thread as probably this has been beaten to death.

I'm still confused which value in DRL_MODUS changes the the drl from halogen drl to the rings? Are the tail lights off?

If I understand correctly you changed the brightness in HELLIGKEIT_DRL from default 54% probably to 100%?

thanks!

FRM 3050 HELLIGKEIT_DRL wert_01__100% / Werte=64
FRM 3050 DRL_MODUS drl_s_ohne_sl

Try changing to these.
