With headlights on, the DRL's dim, but are still on. I kinda wish they remained as bright! But still, it's really cool. I made the Vag-Com change to allow the DRL's to remain on when using the turn signal, IMO it looks lame if the DRL turns off with the turn signal on

Is there a vag-com code to make them not dim?

There must be, but I am too cautious to play around with settings. Is there anyone else that knows?

Yes, I did. He hasn't heard of the problem yet but wants to follow up on it with Audi.

It also dims when you turn swith to parking position ( >< )

There is a code to keep them bright on parking and I changed mine but so far I have not seen code to keep it bright on driving light position.

The 3.0TDI is not on the same transmission and none of the TDI owners have complained!

TransmissionCoupled with power units, the car is installed one of the types of transmissions - a six-speed mechanics, a 7-step robot S-tronic with a double clutch, a 6-speed automatic and Tiptronic. S-tronic, this is the twin of DSG, which is installed on Volkswagen cars and Skoda, as it turned out later, they have very similar problems. Almost immediately after the start of sales, manufacturers faced a large number of complaints about the operation of the robotic transmission.
