Yeah, this was changed when the LCI of the F3x generation was introduced. Mercedes does the same thing while Audi still dims all three.

yeah they introduced it with the F30 LCI, bugged the hell out of me too, since my pre-LCI 320d DID have it ! But the dealer told me it was due to a european law prohibiting it ...

I've come to the conclusion that it was eliminated on the passenger side, on all vehicles, for safety reasons, as mentioned. So I believe your dealer was correct, sometimes It just takes one incident for them to revise the rules, for instance: https://www.kidsandcars.org/2018/05/...-in-every-car/ |

Has been discussed before but all major brands seem to be doing it. Personally I don't mind.

I think its cost cutting too and they are using that law or whatever it is as an excuse. All my Audis and even my F25 X3 have auto-dimming ORVMs as well as IRVM.
