Question for E90 Xenon light

youngtechman · 01-02-2006, 03:03 PM

I have a E90 330i.
What i notice is, the Xenon light is not as white as other BMW, eg, E46, or E60. Also, is kind of yellow-ish compare to other car equiped with HID.

When I start the car, the light is good HID White with a little bit of Blue-ish.....then in like 20 sec. it become yellow-ish.

Does BMW Changed the colour temperature of the blub they use on the E90?

The older the bulb get the whiter the ligth becomes, but the white color actually gives off less light
