If I just buy the device for 59.99 euro, what would I need in order to use one-click apps available for the ID.4 to change the pre-programmed settings? Would I need to buy additional credits? Where do I find out how many credits each app costs?
I’ve been trying to see if the iq light can be enabled using the same method as the new arteons, but so far I’ve not found it to be a 1:1 match. That said I haven’t had much time and a lot of the database is still German so I need to translate and see what’s what. I’m hoping that i can find a way to increase the “hands off the wheel” time as well.

Not sure what super high beam is but iq light is their term for the adaptive lighting system. The arteon guys in the us figured out how to activate them so I’m betting we can do the same.
here’s the arteon instructions.
Activating Dynamic Light Assist on 21+ Arteons only
• You will need OBDEleven Pro in order to activate DLA. The pro version allows for long coding which you will need for at least one step.
• Pop hood. Hood doesn’t need to be fully opened, just popped open. This is a new requirement for 21+ Arteons.
1. Go into control unit 09 Central Electrics
• Select “Adaptations”
• Find “Fernlicht Assistent” and select it
• Change “Erweiterte Fernlichtsteuerung” to AFS FLA Fernlicht (GLW:MDF)
• Change “Menusteuerung Fernlichtassistent” to present
• Menusteuerung Fernlichtassisten Worksteinstellung” needs to be set to present as well
but it should already be that way.
• Slide to write, select code
2. Go into control unit A5 Driver Assistance
• Select “Long Coding”
• Find “AFS coding Light Assist”
• Change to “Dynamic Light Assist”
• Slide to write, select code
o On your infotainment screen select “Car” then select “Settings” then “Lights”. “Dynamic Light Assist” should now appear in the menu. Make sure it is selected if it is not already.
3. Go into control unit 4B Multifunction Module
• Select “Long Coding”
• Select 01010110 tab
• Find Byte 10
• Scroll to bit 6 and select it.
• Slide to write, select code
• Back out to main control unit 4B Multifunction Module screen
• Make sure headlights are on Auto position
• Select “Basic Settings”
• Select “Basic headlamp setting”
• Slide to write, select code (It may seem nothing happens but it is)
• Select “Acknowledge basic setting”
• Slide to write, select code (Headlights should spread apart and/or adjust up and down, if
not just proceed to next step anyways)
• Back out to main screen
Disconnect OBDEleven from Bluetooth and remove Bluetooth module
Shut off ignition, close hood, start car and drive around. In order to activate DLA, you’ll need to push the turn signal stalk forward once. On your dash where the high beam indicator is you should now see a white A with an arrow around it. This indicates DLA is active and ready to turn on as conditions warrant. Conditions for DLA to turn on: Headlight switch is set to auto, you’re driving over 37 mph, and only when it’s completely dark out. Even street lights will cause DLA to shut off. When DLA is actually on and in use the indicator will change to blue and your headlights will start dancing around other cars.
Push it again to manually force your fixed high beams on or pull towards you to flash someone. I highly recommend running the high beam assist memory app so that DLA is always activated. Otherwise you’ll have to manually activate DLA each time you start your car. You’ll also need to manually activate DLA any time you turn your headlight switch from the Auto position. The high beam assist memory app only works if you keep your headlight switch in the Auto position at all times.
Yeah, what I call super high beams, is what they call DLA I guess. It’s not only that it masks out other cars, but also adds some really powerfull leds that allow you to drive as if it’s full daylight. I don’t have the 37 mile minimum speed requirement though. Am pretty sure mine switch on already at half that speed.
I can try to make a video of it in the near future.
thing is, this feature is either added or massively improved in 2.3, so not sure if you can get it working in 2.1.
Btw. The Arteon settings are definitely the wrong values. Quick compare shows me that dynamic light assist is not used in a5, should be matrixbeam instead, etc. So wouldn’t spend to much time trying to decrypt those
I’ve gotten the light assist text to show on the menu, but that’s all so far. I’m set to dynamic light assist on the headlights in driver assist so I might need to go to matrix instead. Probably done for the night though.
Have found all settings they mentioned in the Arteon Post above, except for the one in 4B, but As the car doen any have a 4B, I’m assuming that it might not be needed.
point of reflection: Am not sure if it is wise to discuss the options openly here though because of 2 reasons:
1. Legality of changing the US car to do things that aren’t fully in compliance with regulations
2. People trying to copy settings and messing up their car due to inexperience.
Could use a bit of guidance in that aspect. @Huey52 I’d appreciate the view of the forum moderators in this matter.

Just make sure no VIN numbers are posted or by accident posting picture of ID4 with visible licenses plate...and also keep backup of factory settings ( and in future whenever there is update recheck that your settings still sticking)...
There are some other things that you should be aware when coding ....Do not ever reset module unless you know how to code from scratch all over again ( this could broke connection with other modules that are part of functionality).
BTW: @Islander
I’m guessing that some of the settings under the light button module should allow you to work around your lights not being able to turn off for the ferry.
I haven’t tested it, and my German is a bit rusty but I think you can set:
LTM Beleuchtung Geschwindigkeits Swelle to 15KMH
(Speed at which the lights turn on?)
As well as Licht Reactivierings Grenze to 255m
(Distance after which the light is turned on?)
Both numbers mentioned seems the max value for those parameters. Not sure if that is enough.
Other option to possibly try might be to set the following to inactive: LTM BGL Geschwindigkeitsabhängig.
That should tell the system that the lights are not dependent on speed (I think!)
But again, my German is a bit rusty and it are guesses, so all at your own risk ofcourse!
Cool, those modifications you listed are the same as the ones in the arteon guide, just in a different location, which is what i suspected we'd have. Having made those changes I do have light assist listed as an on/off in the settings, but it doesn't appear to do anything yet. I suspect it is due to us missing this bit below. We don't have a multifunction module, so we're going to need to find the equivalent module in our cars.

I used Google Translate to convert the images @JimmyVW posted to include english descriptions on the menu screeens in place of German. Here are @JimmyVW's instructions with the translated screens:
The first one is in module A5 -> longcoding
then in A19 gateway module -> adaptations these two need to be adjusted:
1.
2.
and finally it would be wise to check this option regarding all distances, etc:
Only thing I would advise on other people posting here. Do not go off topic in this thread....
Read ...learn...ask questions and let people who are advanced users in this field do the magic with coding.
