DRL

Post by l18mgw »

Hi the day running lights are starting to bug me now i can't seem to turn them off. I tried what the manual says as we'll pull the indicator stalk down and towards you then turn the ignition on and off for 3 secs but nothing happens.

Is their anything else i can try or do i need VW to turn it off with the VAG machine?

Thanks

I could be wrong mate but I've always thought it had to be done via VCDS.

Stalk method only works on older cars, you'll need access to VCDS to turn them off.

Does anybody in the East London/Essex area have VCDS software and the knowledge to turn them off on a 2012 Scirocco. I would be happy to pay for the kindness. Many thanks.
