    How do I make my Cigarette sockets stay live?

    Question's in the title! I've had four Audi's before and the cigarette lighter sockets stayed live all the time. My new A4 Allroad doesn't! I've looked through the menus at what I can change easily but not found anything for this.

    Can they be changed to stay live all the time?
