Dynamic Light Assist

[zzc2010]

I really like the way it operates with one question. If you are following a car on a long straight, say 300/400 metres behind with no oncoming traffic will it shade that car from full high beam? Has anyone tried the experiment?

Yes. That’s the U shape of high beam. DLA operates when the car is higher than 65km/h, high beam assist auto triggered and the environment is dark enough. Also, not in eco mode. If the car sense itself can not shade the cars, it won’t use high beam.

Tried again tonight, still no luck. Wondering if I have to undo my coding for High Beam Assist then try? Perhaps it's conflicting.

If all else fails, I'll admit defeat and move on.

I admitted defeat about three times, but every time I thought “I’ll give it one more try.”

+1.
however mine activates above 40 km/h.

LED (matrix) headlights, like that on VW, will mask more accurately.
on my Superb, being bi-xenon, uses rollers and shutters to do the masking - hence not as "flexible" as those used in the VW stable.

I really can't see where I'm going wrong. I've got someone that's going to try it for me with VCDS to see if it makes a difference. Beginning to think they've changed something in the MY19 cars where that 4B parameter set isn't included.

Keep an eye on the high temperatures using high beams at lower speed. I got some high temperature errors when using DLA in dark city roads. Probably too busy for the beams to high low left right. Then, I turn to use DLA when it’s nice long dark high speed roads. The LEDs has some specific modes too so it illuminates quite well generally for example city, high way and rain modes.

I have mine coded supposedly correctly for High Beam Assist but am somewhat disappointed as all it does is drop high beam into dip mode with traffic oncoming and go back to high afterwards.

When the lights come on in the garage they do the dance but do NOT put the two patches up high like in the Skoda video, so therefore dont do the blackout like it does. Mine dip on both sides

Have you tried the linked instructions in the first post? I'd be interested to see if you have some success.

I've tried to compare instructions from various forums, all slightly different, all fail. I'm in the 4B missing parameter set bucket kamold and dArK5HaD0w mentioned I think!

No because I wonder why this is being discussed in a PASSAT forum when we have TIGUANS. Also I only have an OBDEleven , not a vcds. It seems the instructions are for a Passat which is may be not the same as the Tiguan and my dealers workshop manager did say our lights do not have the capacity to do that.

It seemed like the most mature thread on the topic. If you read back through the pages in this thread there are a couple of people with Mk2 Tiguans that have successfully activated it. The Tiguan Allspace in AU comes stock with DLA activated (my brother just bought one). From reading other threads I have the "mid" beam LED lights which are DLA capable.

I have been doing all the coding with OBD Eleven, it can see the required modules and do the required changes. The only thing it can't do is upload a parameter set which some users have said may be required. You'll need the pro version to access long coding.
