Hi there. I'm having the same problem.
Your indicator relay is broken and needs to be replaced.
I won't do it myself, because it looks like you need to open the dashboard.

You can find it here...

When mine did this, the relay had to be replaced, it's behind the hazard switch above the stereo ;)

Actually, slight correction, it is the hazard switch.

This also happened on my A2, a common fault then (right across the board). Heard it happens on TT's too :?
