Headlights keep misting up

I have changed the expansion tank and the headlights still mist up.
Any suggestions would be much appreciated

Headlights keep misting up

Post by bigwinn » Sun Jun 06, 2021 5:17 pm

I had the same- I’d not replaced the backing covers on the lights properly and it constantly steamed up

Took them off the car and dried them fully

Swapped the left cover seal for the right and vice versa

Worked a treat
If the forum helped you, why not help the forum back. Thats the Z4 way! :thumbsup:

Or pull the seals out and turn them upside down. I also placed a length of thick string under the seal to pack it out a bit.
