My Ride: 2006 530i - Sport - 6spd - Orient Blue with Auburn/Anthracite
When I set my knob to the auto position my headlights are on all the time, even in bright arizona sunshine... Does that mean that my car is configured with the DRL-on option or does it mean something is wrong?

This is an old issue.
BMW has never managed to get the auto headlights function to work well on E60.
After my last CIP u/g things got slightly better, but still can't cope with alternating shadows and bright sunshine. At the end it keeps the light permanently on as if I had DRL switched on.

[/quote]OK, I guess that means I do have DRL set to "on"... it does not appear to be a owner option in the US (as has been discussed in other threads). It seems to be working just as it should.
Thanks, Jon.
