Fog Lights - facelift (R)

Post by thecrofter »

Had to use my fog lights for the very first time this morning since having a facelift model. I noticed that the light switch has only one pull out position for both front and rear fogs which I'm sure on my previous cars was two pull out positions for front then rear. Is this a general change on all facelifts or peculiar to the R?

Have a look at the front of your R. It does not have front fog lights, rear only hence why only one pull:-)

It's a signature of all R models that they don't have front fog lights.

What Bob said is correct, I have a Facelift R-line and have 2 positions for both front and rear as I have separate lights at the front.

Just checked the Handbook - well, well, I never realised that. Only looked at the rear to check that was on! By the way, can both rear fogs be enabled through VCDS?
