Try to be more specific on the info like what is the build date+year of the car ... likely due to you have older LM.
Coded something to show doesn't give anything if the limitation is due to the suitable function is not actually available.

hey buddy what type of car do you have? Assuming that you coded CAPPL for the feature doesn't mean that you have actually done anything besides made it display in your iDrive menu. Do you have a newer LM? The DRL is a feature that you can use NCS or Progman to manipulate I don't think you'll have the ability in iDrive to enable it or disable it on demand. You may have the option but that doesn't mean it will actually work.

You have LM1 and selectable DRL (similar like Welcome Lights) option available w/ LM2 for car probably around Sept. '06 build (not model year) and up.

The DRL? You can try, try to attach your LM .trc file ... it should be there somewhere.

I think on that function if you bump up the wert_ number it'll get brighter but I'm not so sure as my car came w/ LM2.
