It is the one that DLA is capable of.

Don't know why it doesn't work for me but I have tried it a good 3 times now so I feel that it isn't worth wasting any more time trying to get it to work.

Is there a way to raise/remove to 100kmh cutoff for ‘full’ highbeam being disabled with DLA?

While I understand the reason for it, it’s counter-intuitive for the majority of roads in aus (100-110kmh but dual direction)

Tried mine again this morning, got as far as A5 coding, byte 21, bits 5-7, code to 40, OBD11 wouldn’t let me change.
Strange, first time I tried to code DLA, did this no problems, only stuffed up when I tried basic settings for headlights.

I have an OBD11 arriving by the end of the week. Can it be used in 2 Tiguans or will it be locked out to just 1?

I am pretty sure you can use it on as many cars as you want. I’ve used mine on about 4 different cars so far without any issues.

You shouldn’t have any problems.

What’s this? Is there a limitation in the DLA?

It’s by design. The right hand high beam is disabled in auto mode, once you’re doing over 100kmh (speedo measured, not gps)

It’s meant to give you better light on motorways, where there is a barrier on the right, so no ‘need’ of extra vision. Yet you can still have the left side lit up, increasing vision.

Problem for me is it just looks jarring and makes the right side pitch black, as my eyes have adapted to the bright left side. Making the right side worse, than if I was on low beam all round.

Also there are stuff all motorways in SA, yet millions of 100-110kmh roads that are one lane in each direction.

Just use normal high beam then.
