Hello

I've noticed a condensation behind one of the headlights. Would the issue be covered by the warranty?

Cheers

Only way to know for sure is ask your dealer.

m112, take a look at the attached it might help you. There is a comment under „Excluded Items“ that states „water ingress including damage to covered components caused by water“, seems not to be covered - Dave ;)

Correct, when you read all these points there just ain’t a lot left too Guarantee, although luckily the so called major items seem to be covered although also with a bit of a fight for some - Dave :)

I have had this problem since I purchased the car, it is noted in the cars hand book (8-29) which states it is not a malfunction, however it also states that if large deposits of fog appear inside the head light then you should contact your dealer?
The problem I had was trying to get to the dealer when this is actually happening and now I just can’t be bothered and live with it.
