Default Adaptive lights and parking sensors question

Hello,

I have some questions hopefully someone can answer. The xenon lights on the Audi are not "adaptive" but they do move up and down when I start the car.....but they do not move when I am driving. Anyone I can make them move with VAGCOM coding?

Next question is about the parking sensor. Why don't the front ones beep? They ONLY beep when i am in reverse. Pulling into my garage is a bit difficult due to the angle, can you activate those VIA coding, its extremely annoying. My other cars with parking sensors beep without being in reverse.

I am not sure about the lights, but you can activate the parking sensors manually by pushing the "P" button on the lower center dash near the passenger airbag light and traction control button.

EDIT: You can also use the "P" button to turn off the sensors if for some reason you don't want to hear the beeping over and over. Such as going through an automatic carwash...

Like darcivic said you can just manually engage the sensors. I prefer it this way so that way it always isn't beeping when you turn your car on or someone just walks by sitting in a parking lot.

You can adjust the beeping in the MMI menu. Most likely, you have the front sensor volume off.
