BMW 3 F30 AHL Newbie

krystian2505 · 06-18-2021, 02:07 PM

Hello all,
I have bought my first ever BMW last week which marked my move from Audi. My BMW (2012 F30 320D) has the Adaptive Headlight Malfunction warning which is very annoying. I tried to read as much as possible of how to decode the message so it wont appear anymore but nothing is set in stone and most are for E90. Can someone please guide me what to do? I have ordered a Bluetooth OBD scanner so what software would people recommend to get this done?
Thanks in advance and I am looking forward to my BMW journey!

You'll have to fix the problem for the warning to go away. I do my think there is a "hide this warning" feature you can code in. And since headlights are a safety feature it would be in your best interest to make sure they are working properly. If you bought the car recently bring it back to the dealer and have them fix it under warranty…. Unless you bought it with the headlight warning already on…. But that would be silly.
