It started already! Condensation In headlights!?

Only had it a day, and already I have noticed condensation in both headlights! šŸ™„

Is this a common issue? Nothing to worry about? Or a warranty claim?

Thanks in advance

John

Providing it disappears when you put the lights on, I would be surprised if LR showed any interest at all (is there something in the hand book about it?).
My D3 had this, and to a lesser extent my L320 does this, usually just after I wash it.

It's normal. Xenon lights are not sealed units (for cooling/venting purposes), so if you have your car jet washed and or moisture gets in it'll cause condensation. As said above, it should go after you have your lights on for a few minutes. SOLD - MY16 SDV6 Autobiography Dynamic - Fire Engine Red, Fixed contrast pan roof, TV, Dual Screen, 5+2, Privacy, Noble paddles.

yeah its fairly common and not unexpected. As the other say - open units and should clear when dry. SVR with a few bits from Urban and Glohh

Surprised at my 3 year service to be told they would be replacing both headlights under warranty, due to condensation. Iā€™d not even noticed anything!
