~1min read

These bulbs have a very long service life, so the probability of their failure is very low (unless you switch the headlights on and off excessively often). If a bulb has failed, you may continue driving with the fog lamps switched on (if permitted by the laws of the country of travel), taking into account that visibility is reduced.

Work on xenon lighting equipment, including lamp replacement, must be performed only at a BMW service center.
