F10 Headlamp Condensation?

[Andy M]

Over the last couple of weeks I’ve noticed condensation build up in both of my front headlamps, both when it has rained and when it’s been dry (for 24 hours).

I’ve not noticed this is my past 18ish months of ownership - is this normal?

My F10 does this as has previous cars from different manufacturers.

I'm not worried but it does look a bit unsightly

Mine doesn't but other cars I've had did suffer from that, could be worse though when it rains water gets into my car through the rear door seals.....

Sometimes the slightest bit of moisture can cause this once the heat builds up in the headlamp.

It has happened to me before. I was advised to take off one of the back covers to the headlamp (usually a rubber cap to access bulbs)
Take out the bulb unit if you can or find a gap to blow air into the headlamp.

Get a hairdryer - put it in a medium heat/power setting and blow it into the headlamp. This will hopefully dry it out. Once you do this put the rubber cap back on as tightly as possible and hopefully it will resolve your issue.

The condensation you have could be even caused by one drop of water.

Thanks for the replies.
