Anyone one else's headlights suffering from condensation? Mine have been like this for a few weeks now, and the condensation has dripped onto the internal shell, and stained it

Got to say that I've had mine since May and have never had this problem. Back to your dealer I'm afraid.

I get a slight condensation patch sometimes if its been raining heavily overnight but it clears quickly if I run with the lights on - had the same with the previous two cars as well.

If its dripping then you need to get it sorted.

.... I have had the same problem one one side and yes given I live in a hard water area it stained when it dryed.

(I had to tape up the light seals when I washed it !!!)

Had mine done by the dealer under warrenty and now sorted

Cheers all...looks like a trip to the dealer. Probably made worse, by the fact that I live in the dampest place in the planet.....the Clyde basin....must have a leak

I have had mine back twice to try and get the condensation problem cleared (on one lamp only), it is booked in again, and they are talking about drilling holes in the fitting somwhere.
