My Ride: 05' 545i Sport Sapphire Black
Default

I just bought my sapphire black 545i sport (2005). I have a few questions after driving the car. Please answer one if you can, thanks.

1) When the headlights are on "auto" which is turned to the left, there is a blinking green light, what is this light, it wont stop.

2) I have the logic 7 and I thought it came with two subs, I have the bass turned up all the way, what am I doing wrong?

3) Where is my sport button?

4) I do not see two "angel eyes" just one set also, the orange light over the headlight is not illuminated.

For 1: Your Adaptive headlight control is at fault. Only then it blinks. When you have it turned left, the headlights are supposed to turn with steering wheel direction.

Let me try to help you out as much as you can. Here it goes.

1. The blinking light indicates something is faulty with your adaptive bi-xenon headlight.

2. Still dono what is your problem? You have it turned up all the way. Then what? You can't hear any bass? Anyways, there should be two subs underneath your seat. Check there. If you're using AUX in, you might not hear a lot of bass. Also there should be an adjustable equalizer in the iDrive that you can tune to your liking.

3. What transmission do you ahve? Step-Auto. If it is, then just put yuor car into D, and push to DS. Thats sports mode.

4. There was a software bug in one of the versions that won't light up the eyebrow. Get your software updated and it should come back one. BTW, the 2 halo type rings on the headlight is referred to as angel eyes, the top orange, line across the headlight, us members here call it the eyebrow. Also, did you check this at night or morning, you might have DRL on.

5. What's your question again?
