I have the VAGCOM/VCDS and am quite close. If you'll tell me how to adjust the sensitivity, I could do it for him - and on mine when it's delivered in February.

it is very simple...

plug in vagcom, pick the model, go to xenon, go to coding, look for regenlicht. it will give you three or four options to change the sensitivity. you are able increase sensitivity or decrease. i chose to increase the sensitivity to 20% more sensitive and the headlights turn on earlier. parking garages, tunnels, cloudy days, etc.



if you have adaptive headlights enable highway (autobahn) mode and emergency & adaptive braking. very important features and very cool to see working on the highway at night.

i am going off the top of my head but if you have issues you can pm me or call.. .

Dutch: Thanks for the offer. Let' me get through our year end audits and I'll PM you to work out a date. I'd love to see exactly what a Vagcom offers before purchasing.

This link appears to show how to enable the rain light function using VCDS. It is in German, but Google will translate it reasonably well for you:
