I'm sure someone posted something similar a while back about Ross Tech stating that installing the rear LED's and changing certain bytes wasn't recommended at present as they are unclear what those actual bytes are used for!

I suppose its a small price to pay as the LED's look great.

^^^ Yep they did to start with and but is v10.6 of VCDS byte 18 is open again for coding and Dana has posted confirmation of selected configurations that work (mainly for NA cars) on vortex.

@ OP - Please post or PM me an autoscan of the car so I can take a look.

Mike, thanks for the offer, I will try to get up later this week.

SteveP, I will be in touch once I meet Mike and we get another look at the car.

Just for the record, my headlights and taillights come on when I open the car in the dark while on the auto setting.
I love my GTD

I got my LEDs fitted today, thanks to Steve and Dave for sorting this out.

I coded Byte 18 as 0x15 and everything is working including the DRLs.. All fault codes clear.
I have Halogens and my car is MY10, built around February this year.
