Its not your fog light, its a bulb in your head lamp unit, or it is on mine

It's an aid for cornering Jim, I don't know the technology name, but if you indicate at under 30 or 25 mph, a light will luminate in that direction. Don't think the handbook makes any reference to it as far as I could see though. AsNik says, it's a bulb in your headlight cluster.

I like the cornering lights but have found that they can be triggered on a slow bit of wiggly road even without the indicators being selected. Which is fine so long as it doesn't happen near a junction and the car at the junction thinks you're indicating and so they can pull out!! Which has happened to me... 2012 SDV6 - it's missing a couple of cylinders
