It’s a major flaw. I can’t believe it wasn’t picked up and addressed during user testing and development.
Really annoying
I've not driven one in the dark yet, but suspect maybe the light from the central display might splash onto it?
Either that or that its on a ledge and you can find it without a visual reference to exactly where.
Guess I'll find out soon enough although to be fair I rarely adjust the temperature on the move, leave it on auto at 22 all year round. Audio volume I set with the steering wheel buttons.
Probably won't spoil the car for me, but for a couple of euros worth of back lighting they could have stopped a moan.
