I don't have a 2006 TL, so I can't speak from experience, but....
I'll assume you've read the applicable entries in the users manual.
It's an almost new car, still under warranty. You've got an idiot light
stuck on, for whatever reason. Have the dealer either show you how to
make it turn off, or have them fix it. If it's a "quirk", it's not an
acceptable one - have them fix it. You shouldn't have to "ignore" idiot
lights on a new car. Wait til it's 12 years old, and then that's
acceptable, but new, no.
