How do I make my Cigarette sockets stay live?

[Andy JB]

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?

Good question and one i would like to know the answer to as well.

Stay live all the time ? Mine (B7) turns off 30 mins after the car is locked / key removed from ignition.... same time as the radio.

And many other models but not the B8.

Leave the key in the ignition
