Disabling the fog lights while turning.
Hello guys. I am a new owner to a used 2007 e550 4matic. the fog lights come on as you are turning in a few different modes that the switch is in. I thought I saw a thread on disabling this feature, but I can't seam to find it. Any help?
P.S. I LOVE THIS CAR!!!!!!!

This is part of the active bi xenon light system that I also have in my car. I personally love this feature as it lights up curves and roads I turn into at night. So much so when I drive the Volvo I find my self squinting because I've gotten so used to seeing streets I turn into at night lit up so well without having to use the headlights. Any reason why you don't want/like this feature?

Other people just think you have a broken fog light. 
I've noticed it on other brands recently (I think I saw it on an Acura MDX or something like that.)
For me it's only handy on rare occasions like turning into an unfamiliar driveway, etc..

You are right, it does seem from a distance that you have a broken fog light when you are turning! Those who know, know though and I have seen this feature in some other cars as well.
