Default Headlight Moisture in B6 S4

I seem to be getting moisture in the headlights at the slightest bit of water or rain.

I called the dealer and they told me it is normal with the xenon lights. I find that hard to believe for a $40k car.

I plan on trying to get them replaced tomorrow, has anyone come across this and had it warrantied.

thanks

I don't think this is normal. I've never had my headlights do that and my car is several years older. Can't really help you with the warranty information though, sorry. If anything, you could always silicon them if you find a possible leak. But if your warranty covers it then go for it. I've even done the clear corner mod in my car and I still haven't had the slightest fog.

Yeah I cleared my lights in my Subaru and never had a problem.

I just got the car so it should be covered and I also think you will fail inspection in NJ for it.

You know, I actually just encountered this problem after buying my S4 B6. What did you end up doing to clear the problem? Did you change headlights? Seal the lights even more? Or is the problem still there. I've been curious about since I got it. I thought it would eventually dry up but it never did. So, I'm kind of interested in knowing how your issue was resolved. Thanks.
