Easy peasy. Get a vag com and change the country code to canada. They should turn on when ignition is working. Had a big headache trying to figure it out but easy solution.

It may be programmable with the VAG-COM unit, but if I dont want the last final delayed wipe, I usually before the third wipe, press down briefly on the wiper stalk, and it stops there.
I beleive I read this in this thread (on one of the many pages).

You need to either get a VAG-COM unit and program it yourself, or find someone who has a VAG-COM, and knows the steps to program it for you....

Yes you can, change the Country coding to USA and they will stay off until you turn them on manually. But this will get you pulled over and you might get a ticket. Canadian law states that we have to have DRL (daytime runing lights) on any car built after 1998??? Not sure if that is the exact year but around there somewhere
its 1989.

Actually no. You only need functional DRLs for the MTO inspection and certification. After that is obtained you can disable the lights until the vehicle is resold and needs to be certified again.

I have been running without DRLs for years now without any issues from the boys in blue.
