Hi

Think my highbeam is too week!
And just been told that the inner lamp (witch I tought was a Halogen highbeam lamp) is not!
Any ideas how to make my highbeam stronger??

Always had extra lamps om my car but in my last car ( Saab 9-5 Aero 2005 with bi-xenon and halogen) I didn?t.
The highbeam was good as it was!
Tought that Bmw head lights was the same....but not!

You have xenon headlights, correct? Are you pulling the indicator stalk toward you or pushing it forward? Try pushing it forward which I believe will give you amazing high beams

Yes I have Xenons
towards you isnt that flash only??
Only way to keep the highbeam on and stay on is to pull the it forward or??
Have to try today.... in the rainy/misty/dark weather here in Sweden....
