Remember replying to this a while ago on one of the Facebook groups.
It might possibly be the ignition switch itself being faulty. The part number is 3D0905865H, item #2 in the attached image. If you could source one from a seller that allows returns, you could try that and if the problem persists, it would eliminate that from the equation and you could return it for a refund.
Can someone confirm something about the push button start. I never used it on mine, but doesn't the key need to be in the ignition for that to work, with putting the key in unlocking the steering column?
