    Hello everyone, just wondering if anyone has managed to activate the following function using VCDS on the Octavia 3?

    Cornering fog lights
    home coming / leaving lights

    I have read that the they can be activated on the Octavia 2. Cheers!

    Both of those should be accessible in the maxidot settings - no vcds required

        I am sure that these two functions are optional extra for anything below the Elegance trim

        Cheers! Just need to find someone with a VCDS device (not asking for free service) and my car to arrive...

          The dealer should be able to help/activate it but it's possible they will not be willing- worth a shot though

            I may ask when I pick up the car, as long as they are not charging the price that is listed in the price list for a few lines of coding...

              If the dealer wont do it, drop down to AutoUnion at Oakleigh. They will program anything you want.

              I have coming home/leaving on my maxidot. you can set whatever time you want. Set for 20sec at the moment I think.

              With the cornering fog, I assume you havent got the cornering directional xenons?

              Had a Passat follow me yesterday with cornering fogs, it looks weird to see one fog light come on, then turn off after they go round a corner, then come on again when they indicate again. I kept thinking they had one fog light out.

                Awesome!, I think the home coming / leaving lights will be very useful.

                I only have a stock standard Ambition Plus with front parking sensor. So halogeon headlights...
