Need help - DRL change

Good evening -

I've been out of my mind trying to find which bulb is burned out on my car (with all the computer stuff, you would think it would tell you), but finally found it tonight when I was unlocking the car from afar - and noticed the front / right / daytime running light was burned out.

So I searched for daytime running light, but didn't find anything -

Do any of you have instructions / video / to replace on a 2013 328i (F30) that doesn't have the Xeon lights - and does not have active headlights?

help would be apricated...

I seriously owe you a beer or something... looked over google, but all the videos that I found were of older cars or the angel eye bulbs... but damn, yes, this is what I was looking for...

Now if you want to help me on a stupid check engine light that keeps coming back time after time - it's the "BMW thermostat heat control open" P0597 code... but what's weird is when I go to clear it, it's in the area where the engine oil reset is located.. so that tells me it's not the heater, but I'm assuming a temp sensor somewhere? I clear it and it comes back on after a while... sucks... feel like I'm driving a broken car with those lights on...

Found this but your going to have to do some reading and look at different articles to understand what’s going on with yours. I am sure someone else has had this issue. I haven’t yet.

If you don’t fix the problem the code will always come back. I can’t stand have the lights on either.
