** Need Help Alpina B6 owners... **

[CC ///M GUY]

Checking out a B6 and I notice that if the headlamps are on and it’s dark — the gauge is bmw orange. Then, if you open the door, the gauges (extd display as well temp & Odom) turn white like daytime. Iff you close the doors again it goes back to nite display. Basically saying the gauges go white with the door open which doesn’t happen with other bmws, just trying to see if this is normal.

Anyone have a B6 to check?

I don't have a B6 sadly but my 640d has white dials during the day and orange at night (inc HUD)

Yep. 100%. The question is, when the orange gauges are on then you open the door. They then go white.

Ahh i'm with you..

Just tried in my work underground car park. The dials remain orange when i open the door.

Hopefully some B6 owners will chime in for you to confirm. P.s do you have digital dash?

My current 340 and moms 535 doesn’t. Neither does a friends 650. I think it’s somethig with ALPINA

Just to come in, noticed last night the dials go from orange to white as the passenger door was opened. They went back orange after the door was locked. I've got a 2013 640d euro spec. 6wa cluster on version 49.003
