Check Dipped Beam - Info
Have had my 06 S for about two months now and really enjoying it (71k when purchased it).
Bought it locally for cheap money from a dealer I know who didn't know anything about these. Very long story short, he said that he's had it for over 120 days and had to make it go away. Problem with the vehcile is that it had a horrible odor inside that no one could figure out how to solve. Bought the CS for a song and for $16.34 and fifteen minutes of time, the most disgusting cabin air filter was replaced and smelling sweet.
I'm catching up on a lot of deferred maintenance and got the check dipped beam error. My right HID bulb would occasionally flicker so (Amazon for $91 for both Sylvania D1S) I replaced both bulbs. Problem gone! I would guess that if your vehicle has HIDs and your time and mileage is more than 5yr/65k mi you might want to consider new bulbs. This repair was as easy a the cabin air filter.
I'll take pictures soon on my 06 Lapis Blue/Havana S. I love this vehicle!!!
