Default Auto high beam sensitivity.

My car is equppided with an auto function to turn the high beam on and off when other cars are approching.
It is very sensitive, and turn the lights off even when there is snow in the ditch that reflects the light or it sees a street light on another street 500meters away.

I had hoped that the sensitivity could by adjusted, but my dealer claimed that the sensitivity is not adjustable.
However they also claimed it was not possible to change the number of flases from the indicator, so I'm hoping someone in here knows if there is a way to adjust the sensitivity of the "auto off" for the high beam. I know that this option is not avalible on US cars, but hope someone can answer me anyway.

I had that feature on a '10 RX350 and it is sensitive.Reflections off signs turned off the brights too.
Sensitive but still a nice feature.

A very nice feature, but to sensitive on my car.
The high beams are only lit up if it is pitch black outside. If a house has light in the windows 100meters besides the road, the head lights dips the high beam.
