Hi (Roger) icon_wink.gif

Do the Xenon lenses also rotate when you attach TFL to the fog lights?

(You know, Saugfuss, Digicam...)

Thank you.

Hello Martin,

Unfortunately, I don't have a compact camera, and I don't want to entrust my DSLR + lens (> 1kg) to a third-party service. Feel free to stop by and take a look for yourself icon_wink.gif.

Furthermore, I only use the turn signal lights when needed (e.g., nighttime driving on country roads) because I didn't want to have to install new SW housings with motors every year. Fortunately, this can be easily activated through MFA+.

Do you expect such an error from BCM?

It's a shame that the fog lights don't have a TÜV approval for TFL (low beam). This isn't due to the fact that they're blinding. Firstly, they were extremely low from the factory, and secondly, with their 35W power, they're so dim that you can't even tell if they're on or off from the driver's seat when using Xenon headlights. Dimming is not necessary for TFL.

A stark example of poverty, that VW couldn't even get LED daytime running lights (except for the R model). However, the first images of Bi-Xenon headlights with a "half" LED ring around the bulb have recently appeared. I am quite sure that they will be installed with the next "product upgrade" in week 45. If the housings didn't cost more than €1k, I would definitely rebuild it.

Well,

Okay, I'm expecting such an error - all 3C0-BNSTG units have this bug.

Maybe we don't even need to film. Torque sensor data blocks should be sufficient.
Film is cool.

I'm really looking forward to the G6+ Poverty-Xenon, which has a G5+ interior, but the turn signals have been "sealed".

Fortunately, the G6-NSWs are reasonably maneuverable, whereas the G5-NSWs offer absolutely no side-to-side turning capability.

Even if I invested a sum of three-digit amounts in these professional-grade camera accessories, my 40D camera still can't film icon_lol.gif.

If I ever do those TFL experiments, I'll be thinking of you. Currently, there are more important matters (deadline for 31.05.).

How does it work? Do you have any pictures?

I have been searching the internet for about 6 months.
None have really good pictures, except maybe:

http://www.postimage.org/image.php?v=TsJt0Dr
http://www.postimage.org/image.php?v=TsJtd69

That also explains why Xenon cars have fog lights and, therefore, are more expensive.
Turn restrictions: 0 EUR
Nebler as a turning aid: 0 EUR
Nebler therefore included with Xenon: 180 EUR (standard Nebler surcharge)

I specifically drove into a parking garage (dark) during the test drive to assess the visibility of the fog lights when turning.

In our G5, I have configured the fog lights as turn signals (thanks to the MJ08)). But you can't see anything from the light... which is also clear regarding the positioning of the nozzles:

When do they turn on?

Tight turning radius?
When turning {LEFT} (= Turn signals)?
And then only when the headlights are switched on?

Similar to the turns in the 3C:
Turn on the lights and drive carefully.

Want to see a video icon_smile.gif?

Thank you, but my imagination isn't quite icon_lol.gif yet. I've just never really looked into the function, as mine doesn't have it. But with active Xenon headlights, I can't see the fog lights either, so I can just leave them off.

Maybe the nozzles on your GV are also just set too low? I had to turn them up a total of 2 turns... From the factory, the range was approximately 1m icon_sad.gif.

I need to check this finally.
So far, I've just bought them new - because both were broken when I received them.

Smashed? Both?? Rockfall?!

And why am I reading 35W? Shouldn't the fog lights have 55W? Standard H7?!


B. t. w.: The fog lights on my 206 were not only set too low, but also completely crooked. On the left, it was almost okay, with a range of about 7-8 meters. However, on the right, it was directly in front of the car. My initial suspicion, during the first drive in the dark with the tried-and-tested fog lights at low beam, was that the right light was defective. But that wasn't the case! The conclusion was that one simply installed the items without any further effort or correction.

That's right. In GTD/GTI, it's H8 with 35W.
Normal G VI have HB4 with 55W.

VW has been doing this for decades, out of tradition. At least every one of my new cars since 1990 had this problem. Parts were thrown onto the assembly line and installed that way. There was no control, neither in the factory, nor during delivery. My Xenon headlights were also much too low again.

Why are 35 W flashlights installed? icon_eek.gif Doesn't that result in very little light output?

These are the questions that the guys in WOB need to ask icon_cool.gif. I suspect they were originally intended for use as TFL, but they didn't get approval, and now they're just filling the otherwise empty installation space. The BCM can also easily dim them, for example, to 50%. They certainly look good, I admit icon_biggrin.gif.

In the G VI, a wide range of exotic lighting solutions were introduced. For example, the standard models now have their TFL (Twin Filament Lamp) in the long-range spotlight, which is realized using a 35€ H15 double filament lamp with 15/55W. The turn signal lamp is a mirrored PSY 24W SV, and is supposedly also available at a similar price range.

I saw one (G6+ Xenon)

3C and G5+ have this Xenon - it looks great with H7 turn signals.
