I religiously clean my windows, inside and out and I noticed the sticker marks too. A year and a half of cleaning and they are virtually gone.

I complained to my dealership that the inside of the windscreen hadn't been cleaned properly under the PDI and they paid for a full detail...

We had the same on our two newest Audis. These ghost marks have ultimately disappeared after numerous aggressive cleaning sessions.

It was a CPO. I bought it with 4k miles. Now has 22k and the marks showed up for the first time about two weeks ago which is crazy.

I also noticed the marks on my windshield when my car was new. I had totally forgotten about it, since I had the windshield replaced about a year ago, after it cracked. The replacement windshield has no marks.
