    I wont much help on this one. My wife R56 keeps giving a bulb out light. when I would check it it would say it was the left brake light. I changed bulbs but it would come back. I ended up buying her a pair of new tail lights she liked from OutMotoring. I haven't had the problem sense. Minis can be finicky about the bulbs you use and can cause odd problems I have seen this also. Have you replaced the bulb in your left head light? that could be the source of the problem? Are you getting a code for the footwell module?

    First off -good news, the problem fixed
    itself after sitting outside in the sun after
    driving to work today.

    No recent bulb changes.

    Most of the bulb codes are in the
    footwell module section of the code reader.

    Will check out the footwell module and
    treat the connections with deoxit, etc.
    at my convenience sometime in the next
    few weeks, or sooner if it acts up again.
