How long to your headlights stay on when its on the "automatic setting"?
I think my confusion with the DRL's is that my auto headlights are staying on most of the time. Does it have to be really bright out to turn the headlights off? My morning commute (7am-8am) in NorCal, they stay on... When I get out of work, its dark, so I can't tell...
Just curious, thanks.

I'm not concerned with the DRL function in the IDrive, the AE's work fine, which is what the DRL is I believe. With the light switch off, and DRL on, the AE's are on. With the light switch off, DRL off, AE's are off, no lights at all. When the headlight switch is set to automatic, the lights should turn on and off based on the light level. I notice that mine seem to be always on...
