Tail lights stay on
My '05 3.0 sometimes keeps the tail lights lit, no matter what the light switch position, and even after unlocking and relocking the car. I'd appreciate any advice from someone who has solved this.

There's a good write up on this VW forum on how to change the switch, you can easily do it yourself:

If it's not the brake light switch, it may be a short somewhere, or possibly the light switch is defective, I don't really have any other good suggestions.

Thanks for the reply, however it is the 5 watt tail light filiments that are on, no other lights front or back. The brake lights (25W filiments in the same bulbs) come on normally when the pedal is pressed.
