Driving in Belgium and Germany.

Post by DavidRS4 » Mon Aug 06, 2018 10:54 am

Taking the RS4 over for its first trip to Europe soon.

Seen loads of stuff online that I need to take etc.

My question is about the lights. Do I need to put something over the lights or change a setting or nothing at all to confirm to their regulations?

Any other tips for driving abroad are appreciated. :thumbs:

You need VCDS or Audi to move the lights for the other side of the road, only takes a couple of minutes.

It is in the Headlight settings and called Tourist Mode - did mine on the ferry.

Rosstech Wiki suggests 55 & then Ch 10 or 23 depending if have adaptive HLs or not.
