I had some good results "bending" the tablets in the bulbs support, in order to raise the contact pressure between tablets and side of the bulb. The best contact way is that the tablet contacts the bulb side with an edge and not with a plain.
This didn't solved the problem, let's say that it delayed a bit the interval between two malfunction.
My standard procedure for this issue is to disconnect the connector under the left tail light, clean it passing the fingers on it and re-hook. Works in 90% of times. The 10% is when wheather is so humid that you get wet standing outside even if it's not raining.
I thought me too some times about taking out the bulb of the pictogram, but I'm afraid I'll lose the oli pressure light, quite important IMO.
A few time ago I was planning of putton on a 3rd brake light, on the rear window, but then I thought that it was impossible to wire without having the pictogram alwys on and so I changed my mind.
Have fun!
