Using OBDEleven or any other mod tool, is there any way to turn on automatic highbeams on a MY25 Leon sportstourer fr trim?

First of all, the feature needs a camera on the windscreen. If your car has one, then auto high beams should be coded & activated. But it is not a do-it-yourself job. Camera-based features are SWAP-protected and being a MY25 your car has SFD2 protection. So you need a retrofitter's help to crack all those stuff.

Also, auto highbeam is something I'd prefer to disable on my CUPRA rather than enable - it's way too slow to react both switching on and off, requiring manual intervention almost every time.

I can switch auto wipers and lights off, but not high beam so another poor software solution by Seat.

There’s a menu option to disable light assist

I've got options in exterior settings, Lights for switch on time, automatic headlight in rain and convenience turn signals - nothing for auto highbeam?

Not in any of the menus, no.

In the car manual the only mention of light assist says to disable it by turning auto lights completely off, just to remove highbeam assist?

I just found that it does say that advanced main beam (LED Matrix) assist can be disabled in the infotainment settings, but this car only has the standard headlights so that is why there is no option.

For anybody interested, menu option for High Beam Assist can be turned on via an adaptation setting in 09 Central Electrics unit (BCM):

Fernlicht_assistent -> Menusteuerung Fernlichtassistent -> Present
