Acceleration Issue
135i off line pressing accelerator toward half and beyond, almost want to say it’s stalling out. Kind of jerks up if I don’t back off. Once on road no issues. Any answers, questions, or guidance toward resolving or understanding this is greatly appreciated. Using Shell full octane. Thank you!

Wondering too if head lamps jiggle on these?
All stock. Loving the car but getting used to it. Condensation or actual leak inside both headlamp housing. Seems common. Not sure but the jiggling both left and right on road bumps seems worth asking about too. Last car was a 325i also with articulating lights, but those didn’t jiggle.

I think it's just the sensitivity of the lights to the leveling sensors. My dad's GTI has Bi-Xenon adaptive headlights and they jiggle a lot compared to my 128i's halogen lamps.

By jiggle do you guys mean they make noise physically moving around but the lights continue to function? My lights flicker when I hit speed bumps or randomly while driving, not sure if that is jiggling also

Have new to me 30k mile 135. Headlight jiggle I think is normal - it's because of the autoleveling nature of the housing.
Re: "stalling" I get a similar thing - only ever from a stop, usually worse in regular drive mode (don't notice so much in sport/manual mode). Not sure if it's the DCT not shifting right. Sometimes I give it what I think is enough throttle and it just does nothing for like half a second, then takes off... |

When I bought my car the headlamps had some jiggle to them and turned out the mounts were broken on them. Now fixed there is a very slight bit of jiggle to them, only noticeable on sizable bumps.

Seems a bit abnormal though. I'll have to search around. Is there a 2013 model year software update that's needed? |

I’m going into negotiations with seller related to the headlights bouncing over road bumps. If it’s not obvious, I’m unsure if this bouncing is “normal” for this car. 2013 135i E88. So I’m trying to measure the responses here in order to educate myself. Thank you kindly for any input. And a great place to ask!

I used to notice mine doing this but got used to it and don't really notice it anymore.

I have the auto leveling bi-xenon "adaptive" lights. They adjust smoothly but don't jiggle. I've had them on my last 3 BMWs. X5, 545i & 135i. None of them jiggled.

Yeah, I have/had the same headlights on both of my 1ers. Don't know if I'd call it jiggling, but they both move slightly over bumps and such.

I have them. I notice jiggle if I hit major bumps or grating in the road (vibrations). Is that not normal?
