Seriously though, did you mean you had to turn the headlights on manually or just the instrument lights?
I don't know about BINIs, but most modern cars have a brightness control for the instrument lights. Is yours set too low or perhaps the brightness control has a bad spot where it has been sitting?

I just recently changed my settings to turn on the daytime driving lights. My dash lights stay off, but headlights and running lights come on. Not sure what to tell you. It works the same on both my 2008 and 2009 R56's.

Now I am driving to work when it is light outside most of the time, but the other morning it was dark and my instrument panel lights did not come one. I had to manually turn them on. I know I am not crazy that I didn't have to do this last year. I cannot find anything online about this.
