Dynamic Light Assist

So does anyone have a definitive answer on whether the AU Passat has all the right hardware for full DLA?

We believe zzc2010 has it fully enabled with the DLA parameter set for the headlight controller installed.

I have a UK golf 7 facelift with DLA from the factory (central electronics is adaptions only no long coding) and OBDeleven, do you need me to look at anything?

zzc2010. So from your car, do you believe you have all the right gear, or is it a hybrid approach that is mimicking DLA? I successfully enabled it on my car and it appeared to do all the right stuff, but I did get flashed a few times so I was concerned it wasn't using rollers and instead just moving the AFS around a bit.

Coding only does the appearance.

It seems to work but the parameters are not right. That’s why you got flashed. In my test driving, the high beam shade (the U) was way too close to the cars nearby. They are not right and blinding others for sure. I told a lot of forum members it is very dangerous. Do not do the coding only.

If you have some knowledges of robotics you should understand why parameters are so important.

I have no answers whether mine is mimicking or not because there is no DLA officially in AUS excepting Arteon.

All we did were just taking the risk and trying the new stuffs.

I can not give you any conclusive answers really.

From my observing of activating all the functions after productions from VAG, a VCP could be the right tool.

Yeah, I wasn't certain it was right either and did notice that the cutout was way too close to other objects so I reverted all my settings. The last thing I want to do is blind someone and make them have an accident.

You did the right thing!

Have fun investigating.

So if the LED headlights we have are capable of something, why isn't it enabled? That doesn't make much sense. Even the basics of auto-dipping high beams. I have a 2012 Jeep that does that! (albeit not perfect)

Then you will have a Audi with VW pricetag. More on marketing. VW is competing with Toyota or so in AUS.

I notice that Dynamic Light Assist is standard on the Arteon and included with the driver assistance package on some Golfs.

LOL! Not a chance! After just testing the Audi, Volvo, Merc and Skoda and having hired a Toyota recently, VW is easily as good as other Euros. They’re just not ridiculously overpriced because of a badge. Take the XC60 as an example... Same specs and with some EXTRA features on the VW, the VW literally misses heads up display and vented/cooling front seats. It has EVERYTHING else the $80,000+ XC60 has. VW ACC and Lane Assist are easily as good. And all for $30,000 less. Price and badge do not mean it’s not in the same class. It absolutely is. The so called “premium” name plates of Europe were a let down because when I was quoted, I expected soooooo much more. VW is bang on in terms of value for money.

Clearly what middle class saying. In the premium market, they don’t talk about value. XD

Most of the components (like radar modules, cameras, abs modules etc) are the same as they are made by the same suppliers like Bosch, Continental or TWR etc.

They are calibrated to the car manufacturers' requirements but the hardware is essentially off the shelf.

Fair point that one! I don’t think it’s smart to spend $30k just to be able to say “I drive a XXXXXXX”.

Otherwise you won’t buy a VW. Haha. Picking up options in premium brands is a hell of pain in AxX.
