1st issue.... yes it will be the brake light switch, if the switch fails the brake lights stay on for safety reasons... ie so other motorist notice them and realise theres a fault... if they stayed off it cause someissues as people dont know you braking...... on the motorway could be a big problem if you have to brake fast!!
2nd Issue - amber light.... is this the ENGINE light or the ESP... press the ESP button on the dash and the light will come on to confirm its the ESP....
ESP light will flash if any wheels loss traction when setting off hard etc....
If the light says on in conjunction with an other light... cant remember which one.. but its a code for the lamber sensor which is also a common ish fault.. it happended to mine.. i just reason the codes in VAG-COM and it never returned.
3rd Issue --- not heard of this before... however the brake lights work when the engine is off for i think its 1 hour it case the need to be towed, (i think they do on Audi anyway, will have to check that!!!) so that could be doewn to the switch problem..
In regards to the front fog lights, has it always done this??? i think in VAG-COM you can set up WELCOME HOME lights which say on for 2 minutes after getting out and locking the car, and come on when unlocking the car to light up your drive....
To be honest i have never looked into setting this up but i know you can get it on the A6 and A8 so guess you may be able to configure it in VAG-COM..
or you could have an issues with the electrics, but it seems strange that it does it when you get out of the car..... do they go off when you start up??
Best option is to get it on VAG-COM and see what codes have errored.
Let us know your findings and will be glad to help to provide further info,
CAN ANYONE ELSE ADVISE????????????
Cheers
