Switch the cornering lights as well, you might have them. Also make sure your battery is fully charged before you start.

And when you've selected the change, presses the "oh, go on then" button and things start flashing and whirring there is one thing it's best to do .........
........ close your eyes!!
Only kidding. It's a bit intimidating/scary at first but just follow the instructions and all will be well.

it's flashing because you enabled the cornering lights but don't have them Pete

Is it the Adaptive headlight symbol that’s flashing? Did you select AFS xenons as opposed to standard xenons? Cornering lights are a different item and as far as I know there is no warning light for cornering lights.

Headlights
I set the adaptive ccf file for the headlights but they still not working correctly , the cornering symbol keeps flashing on the dash.
Set the CCF file for xenon headlights and still don’t work correctly
Disabled both the above and the headlights work but upon start up flicker. I can live with that.
Am I missing something
Will have another play around over the weekend

No turn off the adaptive headlight setting your car won’t have the ECU for that. Do you know are the xenons adaptive or standard? Where the side light is are there one or two bulbs? If one then you don’t have cornering lights.

Yes, they are cornering headlights with the additional bulb next to the side light

I’ll check my settings later but once enabled my cornering lights worked straight away. Someone on here recently was short a ground wire on each side to get theirs to work only a small thing to get them going. Remember they only work with engine running, speed below approx 40kmph lights switched on (dims or headlights) and indicator on.
The adaptive lights are a far more complex item to Retrofit with wires and an ECU to be added to get to work.

These settings work fine for my ‘06 D3, if that is of any use to you.
