As the title says!!

Happened twice with me now, haven't checked with mother yet, so may have happened more!

Turned the ingntion off, switched lights off, lock the car, front lights off, rear lights on.

Anyone any idea what is going on??:dead::blackeye:

Is it the side lights, or the brake lights?

I've had the brake lights stay on.
No fault found at JC's, but they say their sending the info to MINI UK.

Side lights....I think, but i double check next time it happens

I read your post before, so looks like it could be something very similair, trips to JC's i think!

It's happened to me as well, came out one night to find the brake lights were still on. I also found out one night that, with the engine switched off, all lights switched off and with the keys out of the ignition, if I flashed the mainbeam lights the xenons lowbeams would come on, very odd!

Although, back ones on only sounds like a fault.
