Adaptive headlights
I’ve been trying to find out if the US cars have the portion of the adaptive headlights that turn slightly around a bend. I know they don’t have the anti dazzle setting. I have the cornering light that comes on in a sharp turn but can’t tell if the headlights turn at all around smaller bends. Is this something that would have to be coded like the anti dazzle?

Direct lift from the Uk BMW configurator ref Adaptive LED headlights
'LED Headlights with cornering lights provide a bright and precise illumination of the road to make driving in the dark safer and less tiring. The headlights generate bright and efficient Bi-LED light for low and high-beam in a pleasant light colour that is very similar to daylight.Along with the tail lights, the bend lighting and cornering lights also feature LED technology. By switching on the low-brightness bend lighting and cornering lights, better side illumination is achieved in urban areas, so the driver can recognise pedestrians and bicyclists sooner, for example. At speeds between 25 and 43mph, the cornering lights also function as static curve illumination.Moreover, double light rings and LED daytime running lights and parking lights in the light tubes of the main headlights create a striking and unmistakeable BMW appearance. Moreover, the vehicle features sculptural, three-dimensional fully LED rear lights.' |

If you have executive, then you have setup #3 Icon LED. For the cornering light to work, the light switch must be in auto.

Same here. I also only noticed it after I concentrated on it. It is more apparent when driving away from city lights where the only source of illumination is the car's headlights.

I see the light move when I wiggle the steering wheel left to right at a light when I see my headlights up close on the car in front of me. Garage door works too.

Here's Variable Light Distribution (VLD) in action. I've got it coded onto my M40i and it's amazing to see in action

That is NOT variable light distribution. The video shows non-glare high beams, also known as anti-dazzle high beams. Variable light distribution is explained in post #4 here

How did you code this to your car? Using BimmerCode or ESyS ? If Bimmercode, can you detail the steps to do it please? Reds, M. Last edited by Mike72uk; 10-14-2019 at 03:19 PM.. Reason: spelling |

I doubt JB had it coded. The video was filmed in Europe. The speed limit in the HUD shows the European sign and the speed units are kmh, not mph. Later in the video, the speed reaches 110. If JB was driving on a narrow windy road in the rain at 110 mph, then more power to him. I hope he's got good life insurance.
Anti-dazzle lights cannot be coded with BimmerCode. They require VO coding, which BimmerCode does not support. You need E-Sys to code anti-dazzles. |

anti dazzle uses high beam that move around cars in front of you and oncoming cars to illuminate as much road as possible without causing distraction to other drivers.
Variable light distribution bends the headlights further the faster you go, they also move the light beam up and down depending on hilly terrain or load in car. these two systems do two separate things but work in unison to illuminate as much road as safely possible to help you see obstacles sooner and react. |
