Does anybody in Europe have cornering lights that work?
I wonder if they were removed from US cars with the anti-dazzle due to some kind of glitch

I take delivery this week and have a whole checklist printed out to go over with the CA & Genius. I will test and bring this up and ask for a case to be opened if they do not work, however, not having these prior it won't be anything to stop me from taking delivery/ being too upset.

I just took my car out to check for this. Adaptive lights follow the road, but no cornering lights. I got the laser lights, and the car was built on 1/7.

I also noticed the ‘19 X3 loaner I was given had very functional frontal collision warning system! Came on multiple times while I had it for 1 day (red icon lighting up in the middle of the instrument cluster). I’ve yet to see our X5 collision warning indicator come on once in almost 3 months!

I don't think I explained this issue adequately as I just read the techs notes before pickup and they assumed I was talking about the headlights moving with the steering wheel direction and not the specific cornering lights. I've just sent additional info with a picture of the headlight with cornering light circled, and screen shot of section 6.2.3 of the tech guide (thanks forum!) referring them to item 8. They already had my car ready as they need to order a new KAFAS camera system, so if they can't look at this before pickup they'll look at it when I bring it back for that in 3-4 weeks.

I wonder what exactly they are doing with it, as it doesn't seem to work for anyone. Nor is it explicitly listed as a function in the standard features nor in any option. I do see that it's listed in the manual, but maybe it's the manual that's wrong and not 100% of the delivered cars?

FYI, I've had the 8 series folks verify the cornering lights work on their US 2019 850i laser light equipped cars. They come on with the blinkers, in reverse, and with a hard wheel turn.
The X5 and 850 laser lights are identical in specs. So ours SHOULD be working. So now I know cornering lights illuminate on the following models: 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, X3, X4, and previous X5. I'm not sure about the 2 and X1...if they have them. Obviously not all these have laser lights right now, but they have at least LED headlights and have cornering lights that are functional.

UPDATE
Dealer confirmed that the cornering lights DO NOT work. They opened a PUMA case and I'm going to pick my car up today. They said it could be a few days before BMW responds. Hopefully they get an answer by the time the KAFAS replacement arrives so it can all be resolved at once. He also did made a comment that my X5 doesn't look like the only one affected. |

I was surprised, the camera came in 2 months early and they fixed it and did another software update in 7 hours all in a day. I thought they'd have it for a few days at least Also, a regional rep happened to be there today and they grabbed him and asked about the cornering lights. He didn't think I had them because of the laser lights. He made 2 phone calls to confirm and told my SA "nope, this vehicle doesn't have them". She heard the whole conversation and definitely would have called him on BS for sure if she thought he was making stuff up. So for now, I'm going with that. Owners manuals and parts schematics have been wrong before and I'm not sweating such a small thing. I can see just fine without them when I make a turn
