Headlight problem
Starting my car tonight, i noticed that the passenger side low beam was working but not the driver side low beam. I always leave the light switch on auto too. So when i turn the switch from auto to off than back to auto, only the passenger side bulb works and not the driver side. You think the cause is a blown bulb?

I'd think that you'd get a bulb error/warning on the dash, but who knows?
If I were you I would swap out the passenger side bulb with the driver's side. The bulbs are a piece of cake to take out. Just unscrew the black cap behind the headlight and you'll see how they come out. At least that would eliminate a blown bulb.
Kind of odd that a xenon bulb would already be blown on an '08 though....
BTW, what happened to your fogs? I like the "fog-less look" though

Sounds like something my CLS used to do... and the dealership was never able to fix the issue, after weeks of being in the dealer 2-3 times.
