thanx rudy, I did have them on my previous car...A4, but I made sure that I did not pull the knob to far as to NOT turn them on...
Good work on keeping them off on your previous car -- can you now spread the word to just about every other US Audi owner for us please?

i guess driving with your fog lights ON there is like driving with your high-beams ON here (US)... it's a pain in the a** for others! i was always wondering why people would get upset when they hear that i drive with them on. different countries, different specs... makes sense. i'm glad BMW put thought into that when setting up the cars. it just shows that they take the time to make the car more functional for you wherever you live.

You have to turn them on manually.

Thankfully BMW did not include the rear fogs for the US (and possibly Canada...)
