Ambient lights dashboard problem
Does anyone have this issue with their ambient lighting on their dashboard? Like the whole strip is not lit fully?

You just have to explain it, they think i meant that the light was just dim and that it was a setting But i havent gone back for the problem where my dashboard light is half one color and another color at a certain setting. Ill go next time i have to take the car in I always set mine to the same color all around anyway

I do not think that is something that you can retrofit without changing the trims and trims are quite expensive. |

Just wanted to thank everyone on this forum. I bought a used 2017 G30 and thought the ambient lights were supposed to be like that. Dealer fixed it under warranty.
Love these forums! |

Mine is having the same problem. I took it to my local dealer (the same one I bought it from) and they said after comparing it to others they believe it is supposed to be like that. I know it's not but they won't bother looking into it further. Any advice? Do you have any pictures of it now that it's fixed that I can show the dealer as an example.

I am taking it to another dealer, they kept my car for a whole day just and said a technician did look at it. BMW of Alexandria, VA if anyone wants to know who. I'll put them on blast!

I've got this problem, BMW asked around 2k to replace the dash trim. I pulled off that dash trim and noticed the plastic tubing that the LED light runs the light on had what it looks like fogging on the plastic tube. That plastic tube was a long strip that is removable and it has the LED diode on one end which shines the light down that tube but struggled to shine past that foggy part. The foggy part looks like someone put a cigarette lighter to the plastic and burnt it. Surely, how can this be the fault of the owner! |
