Hi Forum
I have a 2004 E60 BMW 530i with Xenon headlights. The left head light started to fail and do not light up intermitantly! It has happened few times and some times it light up after a short period of time. Dash shows 'dipped beam faliure' message. I have taken the car to few dealers without finding any specific falt. Any ideas? Thanks in Advence. Varna Melbourne Australia.

Since it occurs frequently, why don't you snap a picture of the warning when it shows up? While you are at it, try taking a picture of the headlight as well so you can show the dealer when you visit.
