My mum's 09 Scirocco used to be permanently lit, her facelift Scirocco and GTI flash :)
My current Leon stays on, my old facelift Leon used to flash :)

It feels like the ones with the permanently lit lights turn it off properly where as the flashing ones don't, as it still kicks in :(

My car has two lights, one for the trction control that flashes when you loose grip and on that stays on (non flashing) when TCS is off.
