ECU flash
 
has anyone taken their car in for the ECU flash that is supposed to get rid of DRLs (which is illegal in Canada, correct me if I'm wrong), which is most likely not an option for us, add "car finder" and window scroll through lock/unlock on car keys?

I could be wrong about some of these, but from memory that is what there is a post about somewhere on this forum that I read the other day

If your vehicle is Canadian sold it must meet CMVSS (Canadian Motor Vehicle Safety Standards) so cannot delete DRL's for use in Canada.

Drl i think we cannot get them off but if someone know how to activate the window scroll from the car key... Thats a nice feature that is missing right now. Didnt search for it yet but would be cool if possible.

Why do you want to get rid of the DRLs? I like my DRLs.

Ahh. Makes sense. Where can you get these ECU flashes?

Unplug the DRL resistor by the front bumper...

You will still be able to use your high beams when needed

Page 369 and 370 of the manual show the options, just go to the dealership and they can set them. Supposedly there are a few hidden settings like the drl delete and window option but that could be rumor.
