Anyone experience this? The issue went away after a re-start but what was weird, the car went to my wife's seat setting #1 rather than my #2 when it started.
Her keys along with her are in another town.
Reviving an old thread because I just had this happen to me on 2 separate occasions over the last week. The error has reset both times with turning the car off and back on. Found out today that while the error message is there, the main taillights do not work - the central brake light works and the hazards flash the lights in the bumper, but the actual taillights don't function. Anybody know the problem and if there's a good solution?
I didn't take a picture but will need to do so if it happens again. I'm due for my 10K service in the next few weeks, so I'm hoping I can bring this up and get it addressed, but I'm worried the code won't show or they'll say "cannot replicate"... Any info going in would be great!
I had problem where intermittently rear tail lights stopped working, and in the end, after 3 trips to dealer, they fixed it by calling Audi engineering support, and replaced the control module. The dash error was very misleading, "Light bulb failure", but replacing the led did not fix it. Problem was, it would only fail every 3rd or so time it was started.
BTW, when main rear taillights are out, the bottom ones in bumper take over.
They replaced "SW0-907-064-CH CONTR UNIT" aka "Comfort System central control Module J393", and why that controls the lights, I don't know, but it worked.

Also, when the dash error comes up, it was setting a code in the system, that comes up in a scan, so they should see that, but ONLY if they do a full system scan, which they ordinarily don't (it takes a while, but VCDS finds it easy), so insist.
