Hello all! I got a "left low beam malafunction" on my car.
I have a 2004 525i, the light never flickered it just went off, was on then about 1 minute of driving it went off, so I am pretty sure it is the bulb.
My question is I have XENON D2S With adaptive. I want to replace the bulbs but not sure what brand will work correctly. I wouldnt mind getting a 8000k or 6000k but I dont want any warning lights, anyone replace theres that didnt flag any lights or guide me in the direction to where I should purchase some?
If I replace the buld I shouldnt have to adjust the lights, correct?

My Ride: 2005 (01/05 Build) Titanium Silver Metallic 530i, Black Dakota Leather Interior w/Dark Poplar Wood Trim, Cold, Premium & Sport Packages, Steptronic, Bluetooth
MODS: OEM 166's (M5 Offset) on General's (245/35 & 275/30), 15mm H&R Spacers, Auxiliary Audio Input, 6000K Xenon Headlights and Matching HID Fogs, AIB v3.0, SprintBooster, OEM LED License Plate Bulbs, Smoked LED Side Markers, Matte Black Kidney Grills
Did both low beam headlights go out or just one? If both, I would think fuse or something else, non-bulb related is the root of the issue.
If you do need to change the bulb, i've had no problems with the 6000k bulbs from Erick (member: elite_motorsports_BMW ). No errors as well
although you do have to remove the headlight assembly to change out the xenon bulbs, upon replacement there was no need to adjust the headlights, at least for me. alignment seemed fine

I was going to replace both bulbs of course, how much did they run you?

I just worked with John and ordered HID 8k fogs, new angel eyes, and plate leds. Extremely easy to work with and fast fast shipping. I recommend using him because of the quality of the product i received. Thanks John
