Gen4 auto headlights

Actually, it is a pretty tough thing to do, switching on the lights with light sensors, you want them to stay on with bright streetlights, but come on at dusk.

It would have been trivial to simply use the gps data to switch them on half an hour after sunset and off half an hour before sunrise too :whistle:

Thanks George but I'm abroad for a few weeks - no car or manual. Will take a look when I get back.

Got a similar issue with mine, had people raising their arms in front thinking I’m flashing my lights at them, I’ll email Suzuki, just asked the main dealer about the issue as it’s in for it’s first service at 12,500miles

Please also report it to mark.hudson@dvsa.gov.uk

Glad to read it's not just me.

I've had my Gen4 about 5 days.
Driving from Telford to Bristol yesterday later afternoon, I noticed that even passing under very very small/slim bridges turned on the headlights. Literally a nanosecond of darkness.

I the noticed that as it got a bit darker the headlights stayed on (good) but Waze on Android Auto, and lights on the dashboard, kept lighting up or switching to light/dark mode (Waze) like a friggin disco!!

I'm sad I have to switch off anything automated on a vehicle. But I would trade the Jimny's over-sensitive auto-lights for a rain-sensing windscreen wiper :dry:

No you wouldn't

I have auto wipers on the [strike]Renault[/strike] Nissan.

When it is raining and they are on auto, the screen gets more and more obscured, until I can't see a thing, and then, just after the impact :ohmy: , they wipe.

On the other hand, in complete dryness, they come on like billy-o and you can see the slivers of rubber shaving off the blades.
