I read somewhere that some goat owners were having batteries go dead if headlights were left on AUTO mode.

I just tried on my 05 GTO. Everything turned off.

Does anyone still has problems with AUTO feature? Do you recommend turning them off/on manually instead of using AUTO Feature. if so, why?

thanks a bunch

Mine are always in AUTO.

52k miles and never a dead battery.

Yup, I've never seen a car PERIOD that had a problem like that. Not my car, my dad's truck, my mom's BMW, or any of my friend's cars/trucks with auto headlights.

My goat and my Sierra are both set to auto - no problems. In fact I hate it now when I get in cars that don't have auto lights. I always forget to turn em on!

I have an early builld (NOV 03) car that had the dead battery in auto problem.

But I like to have control over my own car anyway so I just went ahead and pulled the DRL relay and maunally turn the lights on when I want them to come on.

Mine is set to Auto and so far no problems with that.

I set my lights on auto as soon as I took delivery in late May. I've never adjusted it. Still on auto and working fine.

Mine is on auto, you can set how many seconds all of the lights on the car stay on in your option menu

Mine are on Auto too...plus I have the switched "pulled" to activiate my fog lights in auto too. BTW they have the 55W 9005 elements in them also. It makes my morning and night driveing much better. Never a problem.

 

[EEZ GOAT]

"55W 9005 elements " what that mean

 

[fat nick]

"55W 9005 elements " what that mean

i have them on auto and occasionally they do not go off. it is not as rare as others make it out to be. I came off the train a few nights ago to a dead battery. it was towed to the dealer and the battery was replaced. drove it home and they didnt go off. towed there again.

if it happens at night i see the lights are on and open and close the door. the problem is when i park at the train in the AM and dont know they are staying on.

Ive had the same problem as well. It's in the shop now to get looked at along with the stub axle that came loose at about 40 mph.
