Any ideas?
This is indicative of canBus errors caused by controller area network in your Bimmer. It has to do with LED resistor values not matching with Bosch controller's values. I got into same issues with my e93 production model of 09/09 which got the same erratic behavior. Either you got to install resistors or buy pre-matched, i.e. "error free" LED bulbs. This is most endemic on Bimmers more than other manufacturers.

A question please....?: the angels eyes on my e93 got are 35 watts H8 bulbs/each. How am I supposed to use the roadway side lighting feature with these behemoths bulbs? My battery will be flat in less than fifteen minutes. On my old '02 e46 parking lights were just small bulbs and day running lights were dimmed high beams.
