I am unable to change L/R on the lights setting. The option to adjust is shaded out. Is this correct? Perhaps it adjusts automatically when I drive abroad (GPS)?

LOL Went to get the manual and read about it (page 131) - the car is to be stationary to select L/R. So serves me right for fiddling when driving!Confused

Jon, for auto high beam the lights have to be on Auto and then just push the stalk forward once and you will see another green light appear on the dash with an 'A' in it. Hope that helps.

Hi Jon,

I can not find the post where you were saying you had trouble with the Auto Full beam...

I wonder if you have 'ticked' the box for it in the menu..
Go to;
Vehicle
Settings
Lights and Visibility
Exterior lights
You will see "Dyn Full Beam" (I think it says) (this is below the L/R adjust menu I could not figure out).
Make sure the Dyn Full beam box is ticked.

I had a play around with the menu this morning.

Hope that helps Jon!Smile

Just checked here... http://www.porsche.com/uk/models/cayenne/cayenne-diesel/safety/porsche-dynamic-light-system-pdls/

I think the Auto full beam is only with PDLS +

Your right,, after visiting my opc today I realise I have the xenon pdls but no plus ,im glad in a way because it was driving me crazy looking for the dynamic beam in the settings menu.. thanks man..

While I was there they had an s in saphire blue with 21" platinum classics.. nice..big old mammas.. but it had halogen lights and I could see the big difference.
