Just a minor issue wanted to see if anyone else had simal gremilns.

04 a8

at times with the lights set to auto, I will turn the ignition off and remove the key...the parking lights will stay turned on and the car will be beeping at me like i left the lights on... but i didnt, and the light **** will have no effect if i turn the light to off they still stay on. they will not turn off until i put the key back in the ignition and restart the car and then turn it off again.

Don't leave the turn signals on

Plano-4.2

IIRC leaving the turn signal on when turning off the car will leave one side's parking lights on (side depends on which turn signal was left on). This is a european feature for when they park on the sidewalk at night ;-)

Thanks fellas

i have the SAME problem... Plano 4.2, has nothing to do with turn signals... low beams stay ON. Nothing you can do turns them off except driving again for a while...

I had Boardwalk check it out but they could not replicate it.

2004 A8.....

Plano-4.2

Which happens when the turn signal is left on when the car is turned off.

Does the car beep at you when you exit? I assume this doesn't happen everytime; only occasionally?

Give a shot at turning your car off (remove the key too?)with the turn signal on and see if that is what you have experienced or is different.

but this is different I think. my LIGHTS stay on... just as if the car were running...

i'll try some things next time and report back

... or I may just buy an 07

that may be less frustrating....
