    Hi Guys,

    Havent been on the forum for around 7 years, back when I was a mk1 / mk2 / jetta / scirocco owner,
    Its been so long I'd forgotton my log in details and had to create a new account haha.

    My mk6 golf GTI has a strange issue with the tail lights.

    The inner side lights turn off after a few seconds of shutting the boot. (if you open the boot and close it, they will come back on when it closes, but then turn off again a few moments later)

    This then displays a "bulb warning light" on the dash.

    If I unlock the car in the night time, with the lights set to auto, then the same thing will happen.
    i.e they come on automatically, but then turn off a few seconds later.

    I was thinking the boot latch possibly - but it seems such a specific problem that someone will hopefully have experienced it before.

    any ideas?

    Cheers,
