Hi everyone, I've been watching too much YouTube but I noticed that the non NA Golf R Headlight inner LED bulbs light up a lot more than the NA ones. Does anyone know the coding to brighten up the inner LED? Taking a closer look, when the lights are on I do see some LEDs but they are not bright in comparison to the attached photo. *I am aware the inner LED serves as the high beam projector but I'm trying to get the look of this without high beams on* Thanks in advance!  |

^^^ quantumn: Hi.
Does your car have "LCMs" (Light Control Modules)? Look at the information in your scan report to see if it has LCMs: look for the term "LCM" in the scan report - perhaps on the descriptors for the modules @ address hex29, or hex39. Or perhaps your car has modules @ address hexD6 and hexD7. If so, you can't change the illumination level on ANY headlight lamps - alas

Hi Don,
Thanks for your reply.
On my control units, I see:
Light Control Left
Light Control Right
Light Control Left 2
Light Control Right 2
Unsure if I'm looking in the right place...

Why dont make a backup of your modules to see that Don says .....👍👍
it is more quickly...

Sorry, clearly a noob with this software haha - I will do a backup and see if I am understanding the request!

Correct me if I’m wrong guys but I think what you’re seeing isn’t possible with North America golfs. That R seems to have DLA (Dynamic Light Assist) and at night all 4 beams are always on. Look at the low beams you’ll see they kind of look like a matrix.

Mine has all 4 LED’s on whenever the lights are on (high beam/low beam) with or without the dynamic light assist on,

Okay ı asked the dealer and The cars you see that have the inner light illuminated have ‘Dynamic light assist’ fitted as an option, so we can never light the inner bulb with coding problem solved |

I also have high beam assist and corning lights, I feel like I should have this haha |

I’m 99% sure it’s not an option over here. We do get swiveling lights and automatic high beams, but that’s it essentially. Check it out on YouTube, it’s a pretty cool shutter system that lets you have high beams on all the time. Unfortunately it’s reserved for other countries though, probably because of cost. |

1. "Basic headlight setting" and error will show up on the AID 2. "Acknowledge basic setting" Clear any faults

I have heard that our NA Golfs are a bit quieter because there’s a second cat on ours. I’ve been thinking of going to a shop and getting it removed  |

This seems a little too good to be true, does it really enable DLA on cars that don’t have it? I may be wrong but US Golfs don’t come with the hardware for it.

There is literally a different motor on the high beams in the US. I just spent sometime using VCP to load the Euro firmware needed for the DLA, my US GTI LED headlight just trough up an error so I flash them back.

hmmm........ certainly does seem too good to be true!! Not sure if we are mixing-up High-beam assist (HBA) and Dynamic High-beam assist (DLA).
The former (HBA) is a binary facility (i.e. HBA simply turns ON/OFF the main lights with on-coming traffic) and the latter is a analogue facility (i.e. it's "analogue" in that DLA uses a number of shutters that rise into the main beam light pattern to obscure glare - DLA tracks the route of on-coming traffic (using the front facing camera), so that the shutters continuously change as the route of the traffic alters,
Clearly then, for the DLA function to be successfully retro - activated on a the car that was factory built with HBA, the lamps need to have the tracking shutters physically fitted to the headlight assemblies - it's not just a matter of coding the front camera and LCMs and doing basic settings.
Do the headlights on this car have multiple shutters for the DLA function?

Luckily with the transition to LED we have a very easy indicator of DLA being installed: Additional Highbeam. When the Headlight could theoretically use DLA, both the inner and the outer light are going to highbeam. Without DLA, there is just the inner one going up. The other indicator - integrated *static* intersection/curve light is still valid. See this post in German for details on DLA: www.motor-talk.de/forum/als-led-vs-basic-led-scheinwerfer-t6584164.html?page=1#post55948193 |

bumping a old thread i have a north american mk7.5 golf r, with front a5 camera and headlights that should be capable of dla as per newty above (both inner and outer lights are on during highbeam). i tried several guides online, including the steps from above and also the one from ascoding.ch, but i still can't get dla to work. the menu on headunit has dla enabled, but when i push the light stalk forward, it gives me an error "fault: light assist". i tried disable/enable settings light rain/corner/all weather lights but that didn't help. yes i've also done the basic/acknowledge reset. right now in the 4B module, i have it set to "AFS, FLA, Fernlicht ueber AFS", which is basic light assist, and it works. if i change it to "AFS, FLA, Fernlicht (GLW,MDF) for dla, then it gives me the above error. so maybe it's something to do with GLW or MDF? not sure what they are dv52 (Australia)newty |

If your R is from the US/Canada, and you haven’t replaced the headlights, then unfortunately there is no way to get DLA, sorry. You can’t just enable it through coding, the light fixtures are different. DLA is not an option in North America.
