Condensation in headlight
Okay so I was washing my car the other day and later noticed that the left headlight was somewhat fogged up. I didn't see sitting water in there, just the fog. So I called McGrath (the car is under fact. warr. till late July) and they told me to drive the car with the light on and see if the fog goes away. So I did and it the fog disappeared. The guy there also said that if it DIDN'T go away, to bring the car in and they would warranty it.
No my question is this: if water got in there once, it's obviously gonna happen again, so should I push them to warranty it? I would have to get that headlight fogged up again somehow before taking it in. Maybe I'll try Audi Exchange in Highland Park.
Anyone have this problem in the past? How did it pan out?

you can do it yourself
its a seal that goes around the headlight most likely. Also check the glass for any cracks or rock chips that may be letting water in. You can put plastic 3M cover over them the try to curb rock cracks and things. But if the dealer will do it, rock on!
