Possible to DISABLE corner-illuminating fogs?
Possible to DISABLE corner-illuminating fogs? Im not to fond of them turning ON and OFF individually... when you go around the corner or turn the wheel it makes the car look like theres a bulb burned out... I figured this may be a setting or can be disabled at the dealer with the SDS....

I'd say no.
I asked my dealer about this on my GL450 and she said it can't be disabled and that I should have got that option if I didn't want it. So helpful.

try turn on the headlight manually instead of leaving it on auto. that should disable the feature. If not, then just keep your foglights on.

Doesn't work. Only way that does is leaving the fogs on. But I would love to be able to have the option to turn them off.

I see. on the CLS500 that my friend has the function was disabled when I manually turn on the headlights.

well, if you have someone that has the STAR diagnostic you can have the settings changed.
