Could someone who has the extended interior lighting pack and has used it in "drive select" mode (where it's meant to change colour based on what mode you have the drive select in) tell me what colours your interior lights go in the various modes? As far as I can tell, mine does the following:

Auto - everything white
Economy - everything white
Dynamic - line lighting goes red, everything else stays white
Comfort - line lighting goes a sort of yellow colour, everything else stays white
Individual - everything is white

I would have expected it to change more than that, but it doesn't specify in the manual how it's meant to change just that it will based on the mode. The different coloured LEDs are definitely working because if I put the lights in Individual mode I can select all the different colours for each lighting component and they change accordingly.
 
Don't you have to customise the colours you want for each driving mode? Haven't got mine yet so can't confirm but i'm sure I've seen somewhere that it's customisable.
 
As far as I could see last night you can only customise the Individual mode under the lighting menu, not the colours for the different drive select modes, but I may have missed an option.
 
I haven't customised anything other than auto, but I'm 99% certain.
When customising it there is a section for 'Drive Select' (under background lighting option) and then you can set it there.

In fact, i'll go check...
 
Ok I take it back.I can't find a way to do it either..

Like you said, if its set to Audi Drive Select, I get White for Auto, Red for Dymanic, Yellow ish for comfort. Unable to change the brightness or colour for them.
 
Thanks. Do all the lights change on yours with the different modes, or only the line lighting?
 
Only the line light. Everything else white and no footwell light.

Guess I'll leave it on individual!
 
Mine is a standard Sline MY16 and I have footwell lights, but only when the door opens, not ambient lighting.
 
Only the line light. Everything else white and no footwell light.

Guess I'll leave it on individual!

Thanks, at least that confirms that mine is working properly. Bit disappointing that they didn't make them all change with the mode though... Like you I'll probably use Individual most of the time I think.
 
Is there any VCDS OBD11 coding that could be altered to change these settings?
 
I have mine set to individual and all lights set to blue. My OCD didn't like some of the lights staying white.

According to the lastest beta version of the Carista app, there's now a setting to enable 'disco mode'

@Keef have you got B&O ? Did you manage to get the white light on the speaker to turn blue as well? That bothers my OCD too!

Cheers
 
@pierreluigi88 yes I've got B&O
I'm sure I managed to get all the lights blue but cannot recall, I'll check later.
With these longer daylight days I rarely see my lights, had the car since May and still haven't used the matrix headlights!
