Had a front side light bulb out on my Z4C
The indicator stayed on solid - even when the car was switched off.
Never used the car for 3 days & the battery went flat.

Removed the side light bulb & couldn't get the bulb out the holder - then i realised the side pins were under the moulded plastic.
Phone BMW, yes, the bulb comes with the holder & it's £22.79

Its a wee miniature halogen bulb (I've got the xenons)

rant over.. .

I have had the same problem with my side light, my indicator stays on when my lights are on but they do turn off when the cars off.
I removed the holder and managed to get the bulb out by getting one side out out a time and have ordered a replacement bulb from here. cost only £3.95+ del. Did try some bulbs from halfords but they were not powerful enough must be 12v 10w. Once the bulbs out you can file the holder so you can easily replace the bulb
 
Thats the fella

If it happens again, i'm going to cut the plastic on the holder & get these.

Cheers for the link
