LED headlight

[DRC]

Hi folks,

I hope someone can offer some advice about my 2013 gs headlight. The lens is very cloudy on the inside. Has anyone encountered this?

Thanks.

Is it condensation ? or something else, had a fogging problem with my 07 GS turned out to be my led side light burning out.

Mine too, but it's red dust from the outback here, recently I tried to clean it... but after investigating, the thing is absolutely sealed tight.. a few good ideas came out in the thread though that I haven't tried yet

As far as I can tell everything is dry. It's like the clear lens is coated in a white scum.
Never seen this before, never seen this before, never had a full led headlight before
either.
Can the lens come off to get cleaned?

Thanks.

Not much dust in Scotland.

Nope, the lens is fixed. There's no way of getting it off, without wrecking the headlight.

I don't think that there is anything accumulating under the lens. This reminds me of my Yamaha RD350 (1972). Where the headlight glass/ used to become white in colour after a few years. Meaning is BMW using inferior quality stuff?

All the rain keeps the dust out.

Thanks for the reply. Just have to live with it, I guess.

Get it checked at the dealer you may get a replacement

Does it look milky, like this at the beginning? Perhaps it can be restored.
