H11 Fog Bulb for E92 335i

Shinchan · 11-14-2006, 01:05 PM

I know the H11 fit similar to H8 bulb used in the E92 335i. But H11 is 55W VS H8 35W... will it trigger the computer error? also H11 is 55W.. obvious runs much hotter.. will that melt the fog light housing?

or shorten the Life span of the bulb?

Thanks

Defenitly will not shorten the bulb life since the draw will be less then the bulb's potential output.

However, since this car is so sensitive, I'm think the car's computer will recognize it.

actually its reverse.. OEM is H8 35W.. by changing it to H11 55W.. draws more power.. and heat generate

I would advise against the H11. All your concerns are highly possible.
