Hey Bushy, welcome to a5oc.

The ipod issue may be related to the cable. The cable changed from MY2008 to MY2009 so you need to make sure you have a MY2009 cable. This has been discussed in other threads and the part number you need is listed somewhere.

As for the DRLs it sounds like someone made a cock-up somewhere along the line. I don't think they were ever removed as an option. I assume you are not paying for them as they would have made the car £775 more expensive. Did the leasing cost change as a result of them not being on the car ? If they are on your order confirmation I would think you could ask your leasing firm to have them retrofitted but then you will have to pay over the 3 years. For me the car is not the same without DRLs so I would think it's worth pushing for them.

Good luck and let us know how you get one.
 
Hey again Bushy, this is the part number for the MY2009 ipod/iphone connector - part no. 4F0 051 510K. This connects to the standard ipod slot.

The published economy figures are a nonsense. I am averaging 28 mpg after 5000 miles. Is your car quattro or FWD ?

The DRLs can be retrofitted, some people on the forum have done it. Hopefully they will advise you, but if you paid the price you agreed with the DRLs I would say you have a good case to argue with the leasing company.
