Condensation inside headlights

Im with you jezz, hassle dealer before warranty ends to see what they can do, its unsightly and would annoy me no end.

Saturday, doing a short 20 mile drive and then parking it outside the hotel before driving it back the next day. No rain whatsoever and yet condensation in both headlights. To be honest not good enough and definitely something I will be pursuing with the dealer.

Just to give a full update on this one. My dealer asked me to send pictures of the condensation so they could have some sort of proof of it.

I was really surprised when I took the car into the dealer for the service that they had in fact ordered and have sat in stock two front headlights.

So whilst it was service they changed the headlights.

That was on Friday, might unit a couple of times since and no sign of condensation at all, so there was definitely something wrong with the old headlights.

Great news Jezz....and good to hear that the dealers are looking after 'us'.

It's a well documented issue if you search tinterweb.

Keep an eye on the NS rear tail lamps as well.

One good way of telling what is failing on these cars is to search ebay for accessories....there you will see a plethora of headlights and NSR tail lamp assemblies for sail as well as other odds and sods.

Which dealership do you take your car to ?

Happened on mine after washing the car. Dealer advised nothing to worry about as it will clear within a few days which it did. Doesn't happen when I wash my other car though so does make me wonder how the water gets in. I only use a hose too which is set to sprinkle not blast so definitely would not ever use a pressure washer!

Looks as though my dealer was trying to fob me off. Very disappointing when it appears to be a known issue. I will be pushing for mine to be replaced under warranty as they should not be letting water in. Service due in a couple of months time so I will request that they order replacements.
