    I have a 2007 A6 3.2 Quattro with a confusing issue. When the accessories are on but not the engine, the left rear turn signal works as it should. As soon as the engine is turned on, the turn signal goes dead. Any thoughts?

    Take the unit out and check the condition of the earth pin in the plug and post in the bulb holder, they are too small, get hot and and burn out causing high resistance.
