Doesn't matter what vehicle they came off, PV/Shuttle/Cali/Kombi/Caravelle.... F onwards will have the revised DRL bulb holders. A-E may have remedy fitted and should be OK if done properly If not, check the bulb holder for scorching. If none, they should be fine

Thanks, are the original drl bulb holders in situ or have they had the revised ones fitted ?

Hey folks, I’ve just purchased some H7 lights for my T6 to replace the standard H4’s. G revision so should be good on the DRL holders. I’d like to upgrade the bulbs now (before install) so I don’t have to worry about them for a few years. Does this set look like a good option...

2 pairs of H7s. W21W for DRL. Fog lights are H8s which are 35W, however H11s will fit and come as 55W halogens or LEDs

Old thread but has anyone done this? There is an option on Carista to disable the bulb check. Is that enough to have LED DRL's without the van having a wobbler?

Good Evening. I recently purchased a 2024 Transporter. I have changed the dipped and DRL bulbs for LED bulbs. I now have bulb failure up. As it is a newer van, when you go to 09 CENTRAL ELECS you cannot do any coding to remove bulb failure. I spoke with Ross Tech and they say there is a chance...

Nice one thanks. Spot the newbie! I thought the H7s were the full OEM LED head lights 🤦‍♂️

I'm pretty sure that the BCM controls the DRL/parking light function of the H15 bulb in the 6.1. The 6 has separate bulbs that are either on or off. The 6.1 and 6 have quite different electrical architecture, so dimming H15 bulbs may not be possible. You may need to add some separate 501 bulbs...

I've got these in a 2001 Passat. They replace the indicator bulbs and take a DRL feed, so are white when running, then flash amber to indicate. The bulb fitting is a rubber cone, so will fit securely in most bulb holders. On the T5.1 you could fit them in the DRL light chambers and use those as...

Revision F or G H7s. Wired DRL holders, as the originals tend to fail/melt.

Hi all, Having a bit of a mare with left hand DRL. Light bulb out light came on, narrowed down to left DRL in a headlight unit that has been replaced from H4 candles to H7, with no problems. Replaced the bulb, warning went off, presumed solved but same again, presumed dodgy bulb, so bough...

Evening all, hope finds everyone well. Just a quick one. A few months ago with the supreme help of the forum I replaced on DRL bulb holder with the new wired jobbies. The other side bulb went last couple of weeks, so after much swearing swapped out the bulb (so into the normal holder) and all...

Yes, they can, but I've never heard of anyone's van failing on DRL's

Which bulbs are recommended mate? I need 2 x H7 for each side and 2 x h11 for DRL, is that right?

I put new DRL bulbs in as well as they were a bit black. Didn’t get LED though - can’t they fail MOT for incompatibility?

Cheers mate, will take a look. Noted on the bulbs. So is the THQ Kit they sell with the H7 LEDs for like 550 not road legal? Thanks for the recommendation on the Phillips, they have popped up a few times. I will take a look.

Looking to potentially swap these from the standard H4. What’s the difference from the original drl bulb holders in situ to the revised ones fitted?

The older version has removable DRL holder without wires. They have been known to fail due to heat. It is possible to replace the holder with the wired version if you can solder. It affects Originals (no letter after the part number) and revisions A to E (letter after the part number)...

Hi all, I replaced all the bulbs in my T6 a few months back and this week I’ve had the ‘blown bulb’ warning light on a couple of times. Each time I’ve checked the near side DRL is out but when I next start the engine the warning light doesn’t show and the light works as normal. It’s only done...

So after swapping out both DRL bulbs last week for Lucas double life the bloody warning light came on again this morning on the way home from a couple of nights in York. Pulled in to services and replaced with a spare one and sorted. Am I just having bad luck or could something be causing them...
