    Hi 2017 B8 steering wheel heater comes on at vehicle start up without the switch being pressed! Not every time, but on hot days.. suddenly realise hands are sweating!

    It's a stupid idea anyway.. how do I turn it off or just disconnect the whole bloody thing?

    I have the same problem, my car is also 2017. Your battery is the issue it’s getting weak. Sometimes when you crank the voltage drops low and causes the glitch. Some mornings mine drops to 8.5v when i crank the engine and the heated steering wheel comes on.

    Thanks for the explanation.. it's really p****ing me off! Presumably it will get worse as winter draws on and battery voltage drops further. Might just disconnect it anyway.. hate heated seats and (ffs) steering wheel but good to know Cheers
