Škoda Superb 2016, Condensation in front headlights.

[RudyS]

I have problem with the condensation in front headlights. 

Does anyone have this problem? 

What should I do?

Unfortunately it's a common issue with most modern cars, not just the Superb or Skoda in general.  I've seen it on a R8 V10 too.

 

Low voltage lights such as LED's simply don't emit enough heat to burn off the residual moisture.

Yep - there is a long thread somewhere on here about it. The good news is that for most of us it goes away after a bit - probably when the weather gets warner and drier. Mine was caused (I think) by being left on a dealer forecourt for a month over xmas before I picked it up. It had cleared within a couple of weeks IIRC (I park inside) and has not come back.

I saw similar on a Tesla a few weeks ago!!!

 

It will go away once the weather gets warmer and drier.  The pic in the op looks quite bad though - mine was like that and had to go back to the dealer who dried it out.  No idea how.

If we use the hairdryer on the external part without taking the headlights out, then will it work?

That was a tongue in cheek remark; sorry.
