Once you open the door, interior and exterior lights all fully ablaze - but that's a bit too late.
I don't want to argue, I simply stated that my interior lights turns on when I turn of the ignition.
Me neither :-) apologies if badly worded at my end.Quote:

Maybe they changed it at FL time.
No problem at all :)Quote:

I know, that there is no option in the user MMI menu, but probably there is an option in the VCDS menu, as a hidden feature. I have just one idea. I know, that there is an option in the VCDS to turn off the engine if you open the drivers door, probably there could be an option: "when to turn on the interior light".
However, as I haven't got a VCDS, I have no idea where can you, or the OP find this option. Honestly, I never touched the interior light buttons, so I simply forgot, that there is a button to turn off/on the interior light.
So do mine.Quote:

Is it possible, that the behaviur depends on the manaul/automatic gearbox?Quote:

Do you mean, that I always press together the "Ignition off" button and the brake pedal? Yes, it's plausible.Quote:
