Anybody with the problem of Q in Auto overexposing by several stops?

Hello everybody, sometimes happens to my Q and to the one of a friend of mine that in full Auto the Iso go up, the exposure time becomes slow and the viewfinder and the consequent picture are dramatically overexposed. To come back to normality I have to set Aperture and Time manually, switch ON/OFF but this is not normal.

This issue is quite rare and I do not want to send the camera in Germany to get it back after one months with the issue unsolved....

Anybody out there has never experienced the same issue?

Thanks...

I am a relative newcomer to the Q and I rarely use full auto or auto-ISO, but exposure has always been correct to date. I sometimes under-expose by up to one stop in certain lighting situations.

I've been using one since last December and find the exposure to be exceptionally accurate.  However, I normally keep the aperture manual, and everything else auto.

I also have no problems with exposure, but if it persists, I’d try cycling through the shutter dial a few times. I read somewhere about one person having that dial not exactly in the detent position.

And I believe Leica has a store in Milan (if that is where you are now). The folks in my local Leica store were really helpful when I had a problem. I'd try anything before sending the camera back to Germany "for one month." (ha!).

@Batman57: I suppose the issue is gone with Firmware3?
