2001 525i burns out 6 bulbs within 1yr Dealer says this is normal for BMW,
Bmw dealer replaced within 3 months 6 bulbs. 1 halo, 1 headlamp, 3 parking lamp, and one center brake lamp bulb.

They tell me this is normal! It used to be the altenator charging to much when things like this happened. Anyone else hear of this being normal due to the newer electronics??

Yeah, I own a 01' 525i. Within a couple of months after I got it, the left turn signal went out. Its been over a year now and I've already replaced both front turn signal bulbs...
