Hi!

The HID lights coming with the Ocean Race XC are awesome.

When you change from low beam to high beam light, the complete light moves up within half a second. Looks very nice - and the lights are very bright.

But - I cannot leave the light switch on when I leave the car. The side marker lamps stay on - and whem I'm opening the door a warning tone starts.

This is annoying. In my old V40 with Xenon I could leave the lights in on position - when I turned off the engine the lights went off also. Why Volvo has changed this for the new Bi-Xenon-lights.

There is also a part in the manual which descibes this behaviour.

Is there any chance to change or reprogram this at the dealer?

Hi Armin,

you are definitely right. This is pretty annoying. I have not managed to get an answer if this might be change so far. I guess even Volvo does not know why the #### they were changing the light switching.
