Question Headlights stay on while in auto
Anyone:

My headlights are staying activated while in auto mode whereas the runnings light are not switching over.

What's wrong?

the drls dont go on unless the headlights go off. The sensor may be thinking that its to dark to switch over. On the way to work my headlights stay on all the way to work if there in auto. Another thing you can do if you dont want the headlights on you can switch it over 2 spots to the drl, corner lights and AEs if you have a facelifted model...

ok - maybe I'll try it and see, but I thought that it was light enough this morning with the sunlight.
