Re: Day run lights

You have to have the Sports Chrono package. Hit the "main" then "set" buttons. Goto Individual Settings>Lights. Then turn on day run lights. Has to be set for each key. See the PCM manual, page 23. Goo luck.

Some countries require or recommend the use of lights even during daylight, particularly in regions like Scandinavia and (I believe) Canada. In other words, regions where the sun is pretty low in the sky and light conditions, even during daylight, can be pretty poor. Guess you wouldn't know about that.

If it's a legal requirement, then it makes sense for the appropriate lights to come on automatically when the engine is running, so the driver doesn't always have to to switch on manually.

This option is greyed out on my menu. Any Idea why?
