Hi everyone!

Pierre here in South Florida. Picked up a 2017 Cosmos Blue/Chestnut Premium Sport Package on the my last day as an Audi Brand Specialist at Audi West Palm Beach and love it so far! My commute went from 80 miles per day to 12 (or 24 if I let the dogs out at lunch) and enjoying discovering the subtleties of driving an e-tron. Looking forward to lowering springs, euro front plate and eventually 19" wheels.

Has anyone figured out if the 2017 Premium models actually have an upper LED DRL that can be activated? Also, I think I saw a post about the coding to leave the lower DRLs on when the headlights are on; could someone please post the code update?

Thanks for all the great info on here and look forwarding to contributing as well!

Hi there, here Salvador from Miami. There is no LED DRL inside the housing, what it seems to be the strip of LED like on the sedans is just a dummy plastic piece. Regarding the bottom LED DRL being active along with the headlight someone was able to do it thru VAGcom...I personally use OBDeleven and Im trying to figure it out but most of adaptations are in german...

What I have decided to do with the headlight is to replace the ugly amber turn signals bulbs with white LED bulbs, at least it looks cleaner...and still we have functional turn signals on the side view mirrors, so someone coming in front can still see the thing blinking.

As soon as I get my car back from the dealer (tires getting balanced) I will post pics.
