Default Daytime driving lamps

I have a E46 2002, 330ci and the daytime lamps are programmed on, is there
something I can do to turn them off without going to a BMW service center to
have this done? Thanks if you can help.

Not unless someone has come up with a laptop interface and sw to configure the
325. I haven't found it yet if it exists.

Does anyone at least know what the hw interface is?

No, this needs to be done at the dealer. There is software from a company
called Carsoft ( http://www.carsoftinternational.com/ ) that can do almost
everything the dealer computer does, but you need to be a licensed repair
shop to purchase and it costs several thousand dollars.

The DRL's are definitely a dealer option turned off and on.

I have a document that will show you all of the programmable features on
these 1999 and newer models:

E38’s, E39’s, E46’s, E52’s (Z8), and E53’s (X5)

Send me an e-mail address and I'll send you the PDF. Interesting
reading.....never knew so much stuff could be turned off and on.
