Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

BMW F10 - SIDE/DAYTIME LIGHTS FAULT

Blub123 · 2024-06-23 15:53:56

Hi I have a DRL fault showing on my car however when I visually inspect the light it looks fine. Car is up for nct soon. Will it fail on this reporting issue even if they are lighting fine. The module got wet, has since dried out and changed bulbs etc however the car is still showing an error. Thanks

You probably need something like this .
The genuine ones are expensive, the AliExpress ones are a fraction of the price, and have worked well for me.
They only thing is that they need to be coded when installed, which the mechanic was able to do in a matter of minutes.
Just found this amazing item on AliExpress. Check it out!

If the lights are working, it doesn't matter if the dash says different, you'll pass the NCT
