Hi all,
I would like to disable the "driving time warning" alert that occurs on the DIS after a continuous 2hrs of driving. It is simple to stop the warning alert if it occurs (a quick press of the function selector or the reset button), but I am wondering if it is possible to disable this function via VCDS so it never occurs, or even if it is possible to lengthen the driving time period.
Obviously this is a safety feature to allow drivers to be aware they have driven for 2hrs without a break (well....without a break lasting longer than a consecutive 10 minutes), but as my typical journey times are now around 2 1/2 hrs with a couple of breaks of around 4-5 minutes each, with a driver change, I'd like to turn off the alert permanently so it doesn't cause concern for the other driver (my wife).
So......If anyone knows if this can be disabled, or the time lengthened (or not), please give me the heads up.
Cheers
Jeff
