Disabling the three flash indiactors - How ?!

Post by catfood12 » Sun Jun 17, 2012 10:30 pm

Annoys me that the car thinks it know better by making you indicate even though you may have put the indicator stalk back to the middle..

Can this be done, I've looked through the manual, surfed through the VCDS menus (I have a Vagcom), but no findy. Someone else must want to diable this function ! :audibash:

I've done this before, but not on an Audi.

I had to adapt it in J519, central electrics.

I changed mine from 3 to 5 clicks though.

Can this be switched on with Vagcom on a C5 RS6? My E55 had it and I really liked it.

Assume this is the "convenience" flash that you're talking about? - but I don't know what car you've got?

On mine (B7 RS4) it can be turned on / off via VCDS - cant remember where it is, but it's definitely there

On more recent cars it can be set directly in the DIS

Personally I think it's really handy - it's intended for use when changing lanes, the idea being you just touch the indicator stalk without clicking it into position and it does 3 flashes - each to their own though...
