« on: 29 May 2014, 11:44 »

Not sure if it's the same with non xenons but on a 62 plate with xenons the daytime running lights can't be switched off via the indicator stalk method charlie.  They changed it at some point, not sure when.  It tells you in the manual they can't be switched off.  May be able to do it using vagcom.

Hey Charles, me in Northants too pal
From what I know, only cars up to 10/11 plate have the option to turn off DRL's off through the MDF.
You may be able to do via VAGcom however. I have VCDS if you are really set on this, but again I don't know for certain that you can on the later model
