Has anybody had the problem where the strip of amber LED's on the front lights don't work?
We've asked the dealter and they've said it's a known problem and that they're waiting for a firmware upgrade to fix it.
Has anybody heard of this?

Yes. You're probably running Progman 24. The newest upgrade has resolved this issue. Ask the dealer what software version they are at.

PROGMAN 24 did not have the LED problem. I had that version when I first recieved my car last December and the LED's worked. I believe the problem was with an earlier version (23.xx?) but it is certainly fixed with the newest upgrade. They should give you the software upgrade free because of the problem.

Thanks for that guys. Hopefully they've got the software in. I'll drop them a line.
