Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

0 discussions have direct query context; 0 report a fix in that context. Other evidence may inherit the discussion’s subject.

I have it - nice to have but not essential though that depends on how frustrating you find manually adjusting lights to be in the dark.

I had PDLS+ on my departed Cayenne S diesel and loved it.Unfortunately was not an option on my current Cayenne e-hybrid and i miss it.The auto dip works very well above about 35mph and also dips when coming up behind another car.You just have to remember to engage it everytime you set off.It also has other useful features,just read it up on Porsche website.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

4 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Anyone specced PDLS+ rather than "standard" PDLS? Good/bad? From what I can work out the PDLS has dynamic range control and speed sensitivity, PDLS+ only adds auto high beam? Does it work ok without blinding oncoming traffic? Like the idea and as (Porsche) options go, £300 more doesn't seem too bad. PS in case already discussed, I have already searched forum (a lot) and not found anything...

POST 4 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Thanks, think I saw a shorter version of that video, looks to work fairly well, but hard to detect the "+" part. Looked like it dipped main beam due to reflection of road sign at junction. I've got the swivelling function on my vrs, and wouldn't want to be without it now, but as you get that on standard PDLS I'm not sure the auto dip is worth the extra step up to plus
