206 rline question.

Have OBDEleven, been going nuts trying to adjust the auto lights on at twilight....

driving late afternoon or in and out of shade triggers the light sensor and the headlights go on.,,,would prefer to leave on Auto and have them come on later like our old R36 used to....there is no where to adjust normal control, so was wondering if anyone has ventured into how this is configured OBD or even VCDS please...have tried to understand the >>Central Electrics>adaptation>Light Sensor but i do not think this is the area where the headlight auto on / off is adjusted (even though this section has different lx adjustments)

You can adjust between three settings in the normal car settings. Just go to Vehicle under Menu and then look at lighting. Then you can choose Early, Medium and Late for the auto lights coming on. The downside with late is that the instruments can be unreadable depending on your equipment, if you have the full LCD dash it's not a problem.

OK, strange, even my wife's 2014 Golf TDI has that option.

ok thanks, do your lights switch on 'Early' when on auto (ie when it is plenty light out)
