A4 TDI B6 2001....Headlights both of them get condensation/steam up quite bad,whenever i wash the car or it rains (rains alot in the uk!)

if i remove the covers from the rear of the light (which you remove to access the bulb) and leave the cover off for 2-3 hours they go ok but then when covers replaced,its on a matter of time before they are the same again.

Anyone solved this problem?

As I believe you have recently replaced your headlamps you should go and chat to the supplier! mine never mist up in rain or when I wash the car

A few things here....

One,.... the headlight units are self venting.. so air flow dry's them out.

another.. ensure the seals are sat tights against the wing

if you have fitted HID's... DONT drill the rear cover... clip a bit or the side housing to form a perfect seal..

check the top of the seals to make sure they are sat flat.
