E60 drl

Hi,

mine is a 05 E60 and i notice in idrive, there is a function to select Daytime Running Lights (DRL)

May i know what is the difference if i select that or not?

Reason being from my knowledge, DRl for E60 is bascially the Angel Eyes will light up. I can do that by tuning the knob from auto---->off---->on AE--->on headlamp.

So if i turn the know to the 3rd position, i can still have my AE lighted up so what is the use of DRL in Idrive?

Please kindly englighten me..thanks in advance.

Hi, i have set the to Onz in idrive but when i start the car, it DID not ONZZZ :(

If i set the knob to auto, everything sure ONZZ

If i set to off, everything is OFF

If i set to side light, AE will light up but dimly

If i set to low beam, everything comes on again....according to manual, to activate DRL, i should set to this but if everything were to come on, there is no need for me to activate DRL in Idrive so i am very puzzle

So when is DRL considered activated till now i am not quite sure...haha

Maybe u wan to send bk to check?
Cos fr mine,
If I hav ticked the DRL, when I on the engine, the AE will automatically light up even though my light lever is at off..tat how DRL works.. I guess.. Light nt switched on but DRL still lighted up
When I set to auto, if on the bright day, same.. Oni the DRL will light up.. The rest of the light won't.. Unless encounter dark area then other light lighted.. Tats how a auto function shd work..
Hence DRL is considered activated when u start Yr engine n u din on Yr light the AE still lighted up..
