It's too regular a pattern though for that imho, bit like fingerprints which is what I thought it was originally.I always thought it was really mild condensation as seems to be when colder and wet.

Same here and I have it. I'll take a pic later.Never noticed it really but I can't see it is an actual issue at all. I have the matrix headlamps, so I don't know if these are different...
This is mine.Same here and I have it. I'll take a pic later.

As I understood it LED's get less hot than halogens or xenon's, which is why we see more condensation inside the headlamps as there is little heat to burn off the water vapour. It maybe the case that the fans are for the ballasts..
Seems weird though as didn't exist on the RS3 headlights. No biggie though as you say.Agreed the jury is out, however as an owner I am not concerned at all..
That's an interesting read, thanks for posting.Which is the whole point of led's, 5 watts produces the equivalent of around 50 used in a incandescent light bulb wattage. It stands to reason that a bulb using a semiconductor producing photons to emit light is not going to eject more heat as one that is using a filement heated up to produce the light.

If you are in lighting what do you think those marks are then?I work for a company who are the market leader for automotive lighting for high end cars... e.g. McLaren lambo etc. As an example the McLaren which have leds have a fan in there to keep the carrier heatsink cool as it can get quite hot (trust me on this), the main beam hyperlites use a thermal paste to help it not get too hot as these can also get hot with the amount of light they produce.
It looks like fingerprints though, take a look at the pic of mine above. 4 x 4 grid too.That 'fog' on the inside of the plastic lens will most probably be caused by the fumes that some plastics emit, worse when it's warmed - the same effect that we see on the inside of all car windscreens - get's worse in the summer doesn't it?
