The last thing it did was create some ungodly noises with my rear spoiler actuator.
German cars have strange electrical systems.
I really doubt that you will win this battle. Sorry...........

My issue seems intermittent. I have had the battery light on, the oil light as well, and last night the spoiler was up when I pulled in the garage and turned the car off.
I tested the battery and alternator, both are good. Looks like I'm just having the "HID kit" issue... Guess I'll wait and see how much it bothers me over time and just remove them if it gets on my nerves too bad. Just weird that it didn't happen the first week until i put the new bulb in.
