Default Must have VAG COM mods?

I scooped this list up so far. Anything else I'm missing?

-Disable amber corners
-Disable LED "wink" on turn signal
-Enable DSG gear selection shown in DIS
-Enable double disarm beep
-Enable independent fogs control with high beems
-Enable lap timer, oil temp
-Enable remote operation of windows and roof

I disabled all of the various beeping for the key/seatbelts which was pretty annoying. Also allowed the parking brake to be turned off without pressing the brake. For some reason that annoyed me.

I believe there is a way to turn off the headlight washers...that's one I need to do.

Some other nice features:

Disable Nav and phone warning message while at speed.
Disable seatbelt chime
Enable ambient lighting
Enable release of parking brake without putting foot on brake.
Enable euro parking lights

There is a whole list of items on audizine.com or audienthusiasts.com I think it's worth it to get a Ross-tech cable to do mods. Some things I've set and then changed them back later.

What is exactly is "Disable amber corners"?

What is DIS?

What is different about "Enable ambient lighting" vs. ambient lighting that is standard?

I didn't realize it was standard in the 2013's. I have an 11 model and it wasn't standard.

oops. I might have misspoke. I am referring to the lighting that used to be RED and now (i believe) is WHITE. It was standard before and i assume it's still standard. My '13 S4 is on order so I can't verify.
