Hey guys just wanted to say today I went to start the car as normal went out just like any other day and realized as I turned the car off my right amber signal at the front was lit orange and just stayed that colour and wouldn't turn off, also when I signal to turn right it blinks very fast. Faster then usual.
I tried turning car on/ off again adjusted light switch still nothing no luck.
So I didn't want to leave the car like that with the light on. So the only other option I had was to open the bonnet and manually take the light bulb out so it wouldn't drain my battery.
Anyone had this problem before?or know how I can fix this problem.
Much appreciated.

Probably something to do with the illegal 6000K HID's you have installed. I would say take it back to the dealer but I suspect that you will end up with having part of the cars warranty revoked and have to pay to get it fixed.

You have VCDS as well so scan the car to see what is wrong, you may be able to solve it be disconnecting the battery for 10 minutes but there may be damage to the controller from running the HID's.
