have a drawing unfortunately in german only, but it looks like if it was #1 here like mentioned above the upper or lower timing case http://www.cafeamwehrgang.de/fbilder/oel1.jpg or what about #20? http://bmwfans.info/parts/catalog/E3..._ far easier to solve this problem http://www.bimmerboard.com/forums/posts/537241 But first clean it! I always use break cleaner - fast and furious

Different systems, same innards? Beside the fact that the 318i part is more expensive(okay new not used).

to change? Even if you have two left hands it´s a 5 minutes job for both sides - worst case is that you have to search for lost clips( #16 http://bmwfans.info/parts/catalog/E3...f ) somewhere in the engine bay later... To change the lenses you´ll have to pop up(?) the headlights 7 or 8 times to keep them in the servicing position.

top can be taken off (just clipped on AFAIR). But for a thorough clean you need to take them apart I'm afraid. And YES, they are all on one circuit. [IMAGE]
