My G87 (May '23 model) has condensation in the drivers side headlight, UK spec. Not just a misting, there is actual water collecting on the inside of the lens.
Absolutely nothing in the passenger side one, totally bone dry.
My worry is that the moisture won't be burnt off but the headlights/DRLs as they are LED and produce very little heat.
Does this look like a warranty issue?

I would say it is a warranty issue with that amount of moisture and the fact that the other headlight has non.

The supplying dealer has said it would be covered, need to book it into my local dealer for a pressure test apparently.

agree this doesnt look normal. I have a UK spec too, no such condensation.

in some older E series BMWs they used to say it was normal, but i have never seen it in modern day F or G series cars.

Cheers for the replies.

My F32 and then my G22 didn’t have anything like this, looks like a failed seal to me. Hopefully I will get to the dealer this week.

Known issue for G42 & G87. Dealership should replace under warranty (I have seen reports that people have had multiple replacements done under warranty).

Cheers, the more I read the more I see problems with the headlights. Booked in on the 27th December at the local dealers.
