Moisture inside the Fog light cover.

[Garu]

When I picked up my MS3 I noticed bit of condensation inside the housing. Is this normal? Right now they are gone. I don't have much details on when this actually happen because I only had my car for 2 days!

Edit: I found the thread about the headlight housing. However the condensation disappeared for me. I guess I'll watch out if it comes back.

The heat from the bulbs should elimate the small stuff,

But if you have a goldfish in there, bring it to the dealer..

reviving old thread... do you use the dryer on the outside? or do i have to remove the fog light assembly and blow dry from the opening at the back? friggin first time using an auto car wash in gas station for this car and I see this, and 1 license plate bulb blew :bang

I go to seneca college and i seen a lambo Muricialgo (srry for spelling)with fogged up rear lights, and thats cars like 500K+, if that car has it than iam not worried about anything,

i would be worried because i'm a clean freak and because dirty water got in there and when it dries, it's going to leave its mark. dirt in inaccessible places will be the last thing i want to see. if the lambo had fishes swimming in his tail light would it be fine if you had them too? :chuckle

I just had the same thing happen to me, mositure in my passenger fog light, first tiem it has happened.

Hopefully it dries out by the time i leave work.

I wonder how moisture actaully got in though

[bunchi]

is there by any chance you have aftermarket bulbs for your fogs?

[omalak]

Nope, my fogs are fully stock, with halogen bulb installed by the dealer when i bought my car..

I just noticed the moisture today, my dad got the car washed on saturday maybe thats thr reason, but i didnt pay atention to it satruday..

I will chk at 5pm after work again hopefully its gone

Is this somethign to be concerned about? or is it a normal occurance?

My guess is that poor sealant or maybe it's condensation from the air inside the fog assembly. But if you use your foglights occasionally, the heat should definitely get rid of the moisture.
