Passat (B7) :: Headlights Fogging Up With Moisture / Humidity

I bought some stock headlights that were retrofitted with projectors. The re-seals seem on but after a decent rain the right side light is completely fogged inside. I have taken the back cap off and it will dry out after a day in the sun but should not do this. What's causing this and is it fixable or not??

Sonata NF (2006-10) :: Moisture On Headlights Inside The Lens

I recently noticed both of my headlights had a little bit of moisture inside the lens. I'm not sure if it had to do with the HID installation. I remembered I had to make holes on the dust cap but I made sure I closed up the holes with electrical tape after I was done.

Recently (couple hours later) I went to check on the headlights, the passenger side lens seems like it evaporated but the driver side lens has a minor streak of moisture at the bottom. I took pix but i cant upload through my phone. I will post them up on Monday. The climate is constantly changing here in NYC because of the fall season.

Could it be the heat from the HID bulb and the humidity from outside?

Passat (B6) :: Getting Moisture In The Car

A couple months ago,I was getting moisture in my car. It was noticeable in the morning on the front and rear windows. Now I found mildew under the driver side floor mat. I have no clue where the water is coming in to cause this problem. All seals are tight, and I do not have a sunroof.

Passat (B5) :: 2004 B5.5 1.8T Moisture In Dipstick Tube?

I have the above passat with the AWM motor. There is signs of moisture in the dipstick tube, but not on the oil fill cap. Now today the plastic dipstick funnel snapped due to being frozen to the dipstick.

Now the dipstick had what looks like lithium grease on it. The car has been slowely loosing coolant. But exhaust is clear, no signs of steam or coolant burning through exhaust.

But if the lithium grease like substance on the dipstick was a oil/coolant mix WHY did it freeze . I use a 50/50 mix of pentofrost SF. According to their lable should be good down to below zero. It has not gotten that cold here yet, even at night.

Why or how I could be getting moisture into the motor? And why is it only visible on/in the dipstick funnel and nowhere else.

Passat (B6) :: 2006 - Moisture In Passenger Side Headlight

My 2006 Passat has moisture in the passenger side headlight. Not sure how it got there, or how to get rid of it. The mechanic at the dealership said to drill a hole in the bottom of the light (but that sounds like a BAD idea).

How I can remove the moisture from this without replacing the entire headlight housing? I thought that maybe I could remove the bulb and use a hair dryer on low to try to evaporate the moisture.

I recently picked up an 03' GLX V6 4motion and noticed after it rains, the backseat floor (drivers side) is wet. Windows/sunroof are closed and I don't see any drips/water spots in the interior to make an educated guess as to where it's coming from. What would be the cause of this?

Passat (B5) :: Moisture In Driver Side Turn Signal Lamp

I noticed some moisture in my driver side turn signal lamp the other day. Any experience out there on fixing this? It looked pretty difficult to reach in there and open the lamp up to let it dry. And fixing it - finding the leak - might be more fun.

Passat (B7) :: OEM Low Beam Headlights Are Too Dim?

And probably the worst headlights ive had for intensity out of all cars Ive owned. I took it to the dealer complaining of how dim they are. They adjusted the aim angle up and made them actually worse. Now my high beams just shoot up into the sky

I asked about disabling the "extended Bulb life" setting and they claim not to know anything about it. I am looking at getting aftermarket HIDs and correct angle adjustment to resolve this issue. I just cant believe how bad the OEM headlights are. These headlamps pass NHTSA regulations.?

Other then the Headlamp Complaint, A great family car sofar!

Passat (B6) :: Headlights Has Fogging Or Dust

Replacing my HID bulbs, and I thought the the driver lens was just more scratched or rock pitted than the passenger.

However, it appears that their is some fogging or dust inside the lens. It doesn't seem to be actual moisture - it appears almost like a layer of dust or residue - perhaps it had moisture at one time that has evaporated or vented out.
