disco 3 cornering lights
hi
just about to buy a discovery 3 which is fitted with adaptive headlights (including cornering lights) the guy who im buying it from said that he couldnt show me the cornering lights working as they only work when 'auto lights' are being used, i.e he couldnt show me them working in daylight hours. I just wanted to check this was the case and that i wasnt about to have to fork out for new headlights.
any advice would be greatly appreciated
cheers

If you're in a rush for an answer, give Pete Bell at Bell Auto Services a call. He's in the sponsor list on here and in Yorkshire.

I don't use the "auto lights on" setting and I'm pretty sure mine come on when the lights are switched to the normal "on" position. The extra lights come on when you're indicating and the speed drops to below about 15mph (not exactly sure about that speed) or when you're manoeuvring in a car park and start to turn into a space they will come on and light up the space you are about to enter.

As above - but the adaptive bit IE. turning headlights don't work unless you're moving above a certain speed, about 3 - 5 mph I think.Clive
