I Have to say that I am thoroughly disappointed in the 2 replacement headlights I received from Audi genuine parts.
I had to replace it due to a goose flying into it.
After replacement, the headlight continually has moisture in it. I had that one warrantied out with a new one and it does the same thing.
I approached Audi of Virginia Beach and they stated they cannot do anything for me or replace it because there is a Service Bulletin stating this happens.
Well that is not acceptable. This headlight is $1200+ dollars. My passenger side headlight never has this issue. only the new driver side.
During the summer it is minimal, but with the cold weather hear, after washing my car, there is water/condensation in the headlight for 4-5 days after. It may dry up if the outside temp gets hot enough to dry it out.
So at Cars and Coffee or any AUDI meet I attend, I always get, what is wrong with your headlights???
Well AUDI apparently knows about this, but does not want to provide an adequate solution.

I look forward to a response from AUDI regarding this matter.
