Yep, as I said, rear lights are on when the DRLs are on. I got my local independant to do it when it was in for a service as I don't have VCDS^ can you do that?! I have DRL's on my 2007 plate but wanted my rear lights on aswell... This what it does?
Tear-drop wipe on your rear wiper. So you get an extra wipe a few seconds after the normal last wipe at the rear.
Can this be done on the front too?
If so dose anyone have a how to guide?
Oh and Hazard flash when doing an emergency stop?

Can you programm extra feature on your clock display ie digital mph?
Here's a few little adjustments you can make:
Tear-drop wipe on your rear wiper. So you get an extra wipe a few seconds after the normal last wipe at the rear.
Front fogs as DRL's (you can reduce the brightness to whatever % you like).
Disable 'window drop by holding key in unlock position' function (a good security feature).
Chirp or no Chirp when locking/unlocking
Come home Leave home lights (as mentioned above)
Disable or enable the ability to unlock just the drivers door with one push of the button on the remote.

you can set tear drop on the fronts for facelift cars......
I didn't see an option to do it for the front wipers, I suppose it's because the last wipe on the fronts is a slower than normal wipe to stop water flicking up from the end. I know what you mean though, because you still get the bits running down from the top.
Those of us with auto lights don't have a "side lights" optionRear lights on with DRL's is called side lights.
Yeh, but then you manually have to switch them on and off every trip, rather than just leave at the DRL/auto setting.Rear lights on with DRL's is called side lights.
Audi have played with the front wiper system over the years. My first A3 (2003) did the additional wipe 5 seconds after the main wipes had finished. On my second A3 (2006), this changed and the last downward sweep of the main wipes was much slower. On my current car the final downward sweep is slower, but not as slow as it was on the last car, and it sometimes does the additional wipe too, but not always! I've given up trying to work it out
As for the above VCDS 'tricks'. I'd read about the rear DRLs but the info I read didn't correlate with my car (60-plate, 2011MY) so if anyone has the details please let me know.
Be interested in the hazard flash too if that can be done on my car?
We've come to the conclussion that the wipers department at Audi had the biggest budget
its prob Bose equipped cars...these have a noise sensor which mediates the volume consistant with noise in the cabin (mounted in the map light module)
"Things like it automatically turning the stereo volume down when reversing so you can hear the parking sensors"?
Is this a coding option, as both my A3 and S3 never do this?
mine doesn't do that."Things like it automatically turning the stereo volume down when reversing so you can hear the parking sensors"?

i want my dash lights to stay on all the time instead of coming on and off all the time
since you guys are on the subject does anyone know how the pre-facelift auto functions work properly as in when the switch is set to off in the daytime do the DRLs still come on? so that it is controlled only by the roller switch? or do the DRLs only come on when the switch is set to auto in daytime and then headlights take over when it gets dark?
