Hi All

Any body have issues with their daytime running lights working one minute and not the next? When I unlock the car, you can see both working fine. Yet when I drive, the driver side doesn't work. Any ideas?

When you unlock the car, you're seeing the side lights. When you're driving, you're seeing the DRLs.

In short, the bulb has 2 filaments. The sidelight filament has blown and therefore the bulb needs replacing.
