Wow, one line code change ?
Executing that in the morning !!!!!!

Thank you Run Buh !

I did that modification on mine and works pretty well. Cool addition.

How can you confirm it’s active ?

When you're driving the intersection (cornering lights) illuminate with slight turning of steering wheel and both come on when coming to junctions etc

Guess you need to have someone watch you approach an intersection, LOL

Don, so having the "A" come on...like demonstrated in your video....does NOT mean that PDLS + is active ?

Thanks for sharing the list Sterod, and me helping me initially to get going !

The very last section , PCM.....what does that enable ??

That was a mod I did for someone with an older Macan with PCM 3, it was to delete the legal disclaimers that appear for navigation.

Santrix, so you added “High beam assist“ with one line code change ?
is this the same as intersection lighting ?
I guess I am confused on what all PDLS+ includes.......thx.

PDLS+ is PDLS plus the High Beam Assist and Intersection Lighting features. It's likely two code changes, one for each. I haven't looked for them both yet. My Macan has the camera for rain sensing wipers, but it doesn't have Lane Keep Assist so while I have PDLS, I don't know if I will be enable to enable PDLS+ as I might be missing the correct camera.

 

[Teddis]

In Dons video......it looks like he does hits a few modules ...

 

[Run Buh]

You know when you turn the wheel to the left, and an extra light comes on that provides additional lighting to the left/front of the car? Think of that, except that intersection lighting lights up BOTH sides at the same time as you approach an intersection. You should definitely be able to see that occur as your approach an intersection. Be aware that this is not perfect, nor perfectly consistent as to when the lights come on. This is driven by GPS/NAV (if you don't have NAV in your car, enabling intersection lighting yields nothing).

 

[Teddis]

Got it....so what other feature makes PDLS plus ?

Hmmm - this may depend on the year/options. I thought all Macan's came with the static cornering lights (the "left/front" thing I mentioned above). It appears not. On 2021 models, in the US, this is what you get with PDLS+ (see below). I can't speak to what came with Macan's in other years, in other countries. You'll need to check your owner's manual.

• Dynamic Cornering Light
  Dynamic cornering lights swivel the low beam in accordance with cornering characteristics, depending on the steering angle.
• Static Cornering Light
  Static cornering lights are activated based on steering angle at low speed in tighter corners or while stationary.
• Speed-Dependent Headlight Range Control
  Speed-dependent headlight range control increases light distribution after 3,300 feet at 68 mph or higher, or immediately after 81 mph and above provided the steering wheel is not turned sharply.
• High Beam Assistant
  When a camera located inside the rear-view mirror detects the headlights of an oncoming vehicle, the high beams are automatically turned off at a distance of approximately 2,600 feet. If the taillights of a vehicle traveling in front are detected, the high beam is then turned off at a distance of approximately 1,300 feet.

 

[Santirx]

Anyone find the coding for the high Beam Assist? Is there any hardware required for this, or is it just coding activation?

Intersection lighting not mentioned in there ......?

In the US we don't get intersection lighting, thus the coding to enable it.

A is for high beam Assit which can be toggled on and off. This has nothing to do with intersection lights which is always ready when the headlights come on.

As mentioned above. Intersection lights is another option you need to enable in the headlights under coding.

When we get PDLS+-via-Launch coding figured out, I actually plan to disable my automatic high-beam, unless I can also figure out how to change the sensitivity. I find it annoying that they do not come on unless it's super dark outside, and the whole thing about not coming on at speeds under 38mph.

While I'm ranting: Second gen Macans don't have dedicated front fog lights. In fact, my 2021 US-spec Macan doesn't have front fog light functionality of any sort. Only a single light in the rear comes on when I pull the fog switch (as documented on page 125 of the manual). My wife's 2019 Cayenne, which also doesn't have dedicated front fog lights, uses lights within the main headlight housing to provide fog light functionality It appears to me that her car is just using the static cornering lights. I wonder if something like that can be enabled on the second gen Macans?

Do second gen Macans outside the US have any front fog light functionality?
