hahahahahahahahaha, very well but you must be hinting towards something if you have that statement there too hahahahahahahha. I guess it was my own stupity for asking the question in the first place tbh.............
Sorry to bring this up again but did anyone ever find out if you can definitely turn this off via VAG COM or whatever its called?
I asked my dealership today and they just said "it doesnt happen when the lights are turned off" ... and "no it cannot be turned off"
I've tried plugging VCDS (the new name for the VAG COM software) into the car, but unfortunately most of the components are not recognised at the moment, so you don't know what options you can turn on/off. A few components are recognised, but I didn't see anything that could be linked to the cornering lights.
Hopefully in a future version they will have worked things out, but we're out of luck right now.
obviously it can be done, by changing the coding. long process but i think it is worth doing. i cant stand the fogs coming on when cornering. looks crap.
and the comment about blinding people if they come on and the light shining too high, you are completely wrong because fog lights are meant to aim higher to break through the FOG. hence why a cornering light as a fog isnt a good idea in my opinion.
bit of a long shot to throw in 'but' rather than looking at turning it off why not look at how other vehicles have it turned on ??
found a guide for Octavia to enable the function via the Central Electronics Controller and ye i know its a real long shot but some comparison and backwards engineering in the long coding may make it worth a look no ?
at the least it will narrow down where to look ?
here ya go techie

The octavia electrical system is the same as the Leon. On the Leon the same long coding is an option. The ibiza uses a different system to the leon. I was coding a control unit the other day and the only option was front fogs yes or no, once fogs are coded the corner lighting is activivated. I'll email technical when I get five mins.

The corning lights can be turned off via VAS 5051B by changing the code as i have mine turned off and have had them off since i got the car back in october. suppose its who you know that counts

LOOKALIKE ARE YOU TAKING THE P*SS![[:@]](/forums/styles/seatcupra/oldforumsmileys/furious.gif "Furious [:@]")
YOU CAN TURN IF OFF AS MINE IS OFF AND HAS BEEN FROM NEW (DONE BY A MASTER TECH OF WHICH OBVS YOU AINT)
HONESTLY I THINK I SHOULD KNOW IF IVE HAD IT TURNED OFF AS I DRIVE THE CAR!!!

LOL, ok then, where did you have it done L99ROS as I wanna book my car in there to have that turned off. I really honestly do NOT need cornering fogs living in London and there is nothing wrong with my eyes either. Fortunately I am not in the habit of using the road as a race track and trying to make the racing line over kerbs................

i did it myself with my relation which is a master tech at vw the code was given to us by vag centre
sorry i just hate clever dicks thinking they know everything when i actually have mine turned off
i aint going to put the code on as i wouldnt give that guy the satisfaction sorry guys
now don't that just suck?! Come on dude, don't be like that............ pleeeeeeeaaaaassssseeeeeeeeee???????L99ROS

all im saying is that it can be done on the vas5051b and like one of the guys said earlier in the forum you have to make a simple change to the coding on one of the bites, it litterally takes 30 secs..
i aint posting the code as some clever people think it cant be done(which have probs never seen a vas5051b computer and if he has obvs doesnt know how to use it) bring your car up to newcastle ill do it for u
they can have there cars looking like they have a fog light out all the time and it winking when you turn the wheel hahahaahaha
NEWCASTLE???!!! Damn, why are all these places so far? hahahahahahahhhaha. Oh well, I feel a week-end trip coming on at some point hahahahaahahhaaha
