New Car questions

Esto-Grande · 03-11-2016, 01:50 PM

First: My car will have LED Adaptive Headlights, the order sheet quotes Headlamp Wash as Standard. Is the order sheet wrong?

Second: Does the clock auto adjust twice a year or do we have to reset it?

It resets on mine.....

1. I thought they had dropped this with LEDs (was standard with xenons as compulsory).

2. You will have to adjust the clock yourself I'm afraid

The washers aren't standard.

The clock will adjust itself.

The clock sucks tbh. Doesn't keep good time whether on auto or manual.

Clock updates on its own now I thought, haven't changed mine in years?

Not when configuring a touring it doesn't, I've just tried to configure the same spec as mine and the wash isn't included as an option

But shows for Gran Coupe

Oh bollocks, didn't see it was a 4 series.

In that case, yes, headlight wash as standard on LED. It seems to be a bit of an oddity, not required by law due to the lumen rating of the lamps, but BMW decided to include them.

It's an option on F2x now, so I didn't bother
