Default Rear window defogger oddity
Audi web site states "Electric rear window defogger with automatic timed shut-off feature"

My 03 never times out under any condition.
Does yours?

Default Re: Rear window defogger oddity
I seem to remember that if it's below freezing, it'll stay on for longer...

Default have you tried "recreating" a warmer climate?
I don't know where that outside temp. sensor it, but surely you could aim a blow dryer at it or something?...

See if that turns off the defroster?...
