Washing the car yesterday. Sprayed some autoglym insect remover over the front of the car. Left it for a min. Washed it off normally, and low and behold, bloody condensation on the inside of the glass!! WTF?!? It eventually went away. Anyone else had this? I have been in Italy, wonder if that affected anything with the heat at one point being 37c

I used to get this on the MK5.
The bulb surface temperature can reach 700 deg C :shocked:
This can cause condensation when they are cooling down, depending on the outside temperature and humidity.

It says in the manual for normal lights, I'm not sure about xenons but would expect them to be the same, that condensation inside the light unit can occur and is perfectly normal.

Many thanks p3asa

What about in the rear left indicator section? (non Leds), looking positively dripping today.

I thought condensation in headlights and tail lights was a thing of the past. It really should not happen in modern cars, but it does and it does not look very nice. Have it checked and sorted.

+1 My MK5 did the same. only in winter and only after short trips.

If the lights are not totally sealed it will always get condensation in it. Most lights have gone over to not been totally sealed anymore and even have a drain pipe on them.
