thanks in advanced.
no, unfortunately NAR Headlights have all of the drls sharing the same pin so you can’t selectively turn a section off

Thanks for the reply Mitch. The only thing that is bugging me is when you hit Unlock, the LEDs are all on full brightness and the led blink. Maybe I’m grasping at straws

Have we had any luck yet finding a way to adjust the DRL brightness?

I like to use my parking lights in the early evening and would like to increase the DRL brightness in this mode. In stock form the DRLs are noticeably dimmer in parking light mode then auto or off mode.

With OBD11:

09 Central Electronics
Long Coding
find " drl_at_sl" and activate
Accept and enjoy!

Which Ross-Tech product can be used to access VCDS software on an 2018 Audi A4; the VCDS® HEX-V2 Enthusiast - USB Interface - or the VCDS HEX-NET -web interface-?

Have you found a way to control the brightness of DRL to?
I want to have the DRL on at night like in my old A6 but not at 100% maybe just 30% so not blinding just for the look.

Also disable the wink.

finally, remove the lower block light on the tail lights
and enable emergency braking tail lights.

So far no luck finding any of these options yet. I will keep posting any new findings as I discover them.

Hey guys, so I'm getting a S5 SB in Canada without the advanced driver assistance package. The thing is, all Audis in the USA have Presense city standard, whereas for us Canadians it's part of the package. Was wondering if I could activate it on my car through OBD11? My car does have PResense front and it should have the sensors/ cameras needed for PS City.
