There is a knob that you turn to raise or lower your lights.

is this normal though?

also i was driving home on the freeway and i suddenly got the (!) caution sign with the "BRAKE" light lit up! this scared me to death almost and i almost slammed the brakes. when i exited the freeway i realized the function where if you are stopped uphill, the rollback prevention was disabled!

i read some other threads about each one of the problems (except headlight angle, i did that by turning the knob under the hood) i have and it seems the solution to them all (in this case, right after lowering my e92 335) is to get an alignment done. im scheduled for alignment on my car later on today, i hope everything will be fixed.
