For the life of me, I can't get these Daytime Running Lights (DRL) to TURN OFF on the 2015 LR4 HSE (factory installed DRL).
I've seen previous Threads on this, but for older (pre-15') models so not applicable. The dealers are playing dumb. One says they don't know. The other one says it can't be done. Both are obviously ignorant. Both with try for $200/hour to see w/no guarantee. Classic.
I found this link (below) for the 2016 LR4, however, despite following the steps accurately I can't get the DRL off on my 15'. I like the safety feature, but don't live in an area with much daytime weather, so it's unnecessary and screams pull me over! I'd at least like the option. Please help!
