Don't want to take it to the shop for a light bulb

to the forum!

Most car come w/ owner's manual but in case you don't have one you can read it online at here lower right on page #236 (if you have Xenon headlight)

GL!

you do not need to remove the headlight. Just remove black plastic cover toward the center of the car and there you should find H8 halogen bulb. If your car is still under warranty, take it to your SA, he will do it in few minutes. It is covered by BMW.

+1 Might be more than a bulb! Seems premature for that one to fail.

Not really. I have seen LCI's in Socal with one AE bulb out on the road a few times. Probably uncommon, but happens nonetheless.

If you have xenons, replacing the angel eye bulb on the left side is a snap. Loosen the four screws that secure the headlight assembly. That will give you enough wiggle room to move the assembly out just a bit. Then you will have enough room to pull the angel eye bulb (which is a halogen bulb) and replace it.

Nomis (above) is correct. Actually it is common for these to "expire".
