UK-POLOS.NET - THE VW Polo Forum

Rear light clusters were full of condensation, seal obviously broken.
Went back to dealers and sat in comfy chair and waited for some new ones to be fitted.
one and half hours later off I went with new clusters, glad I wasn't paying the bill.
Guy who was doing the work said between you and me there's been a few cars in with same problem, a bad batch he told me.
Well 4 weeks later and looks like I have another bad batch, both rears steamy again.

Anybody else suffering with this problem?

VW, if you can here this, put me one less cup holder in and concentrate on sealing my lights correctly

Oh dear, back to the dealers again then No not seen any sign of steamy rear lights on the polo. I did get condensation once or twice in the rears of my ED30 but this was on a hot day when I had just washed it but they dried out in a few mins. I will keep an eye out if I do get a problem I will respond on this thread.

Sorry to hear about the nusance
None have returned to my Local dealership yet
Dunno if that helps in any way

Dunno had fronts do it once maybe a water leak in car or bad seal remove the lights and check bet they didnt change your lights just dry em out lol

Yep that thought had crossed my mind.
Why don't these places provide a viewing gallery, I'm sure they have nothing to hide
What am I talking about, I don't trust any of them.

Before I handed the money over for initial purchase, they were round me like bees to honey.
They get your money, and all comunication dry's up from their side.
That say's it all to me.
Slippery than eels.
