So........ For some reason, without any consistency, my car's headlight setting changes from auto to manual on after I exit the car. For example, the car is set in auto, I park, go eat a meal, and when I return the switch has somehow moved to the on position... weird. I've gotten used to this, it has happend 5 times in the nearly two weeks I've owned the car.

However, today, I grabbed something to eat and when I got into the car the thermostat was set to 62 for all four zone, where I normally have it set at 68 driver and 72 for passengers.

Also all the settings changed like
the interior lighting settings,
my individual drive mode setting was back to default auto setting, etc.
The only settings that were retained were the driver's seat memory settings.
Does anyone have any idea why or how this happened? I find it weird.

Thanks,

D

btw I have a 2013 S6

I can understand the digital settings changing (my car drops the volume to zero intermittently), but the headlights switch is a bit odd bring mechanical. Are you sure you're not bumping it with your knee, getting in and out?

Lol i thought that too about the knee, until i told my wife and made a point to look at the setting once I got out of the car.
