got my car back 2 weeks Ago, had the Passenger side headlight fixed, Because of water inside the headlight, They fixed it, i call them a Week later the other side is now doing it........NOW 5 min ago i look at the car and the side they fixed AGAIN has water in it, and this white Fog over it, From the inside?

im so annoyed right now, This takes time out of my Job


i allready lost the car for a Full day once...

NOW AGAIN!!


im really Re-thinking the TC now...

 

Did you swap out your factory bulbs for some aftermarket bulbs?

It's happended to one of my fog lights on the box! It hasn't done it again since they fixed it.

 

^^^ So do you have any advice when switching bulbs cause i am getting ready to change mine and would not want to get any moistuer inside my headlights.

 

you are rethinking the tC because of condensation in ur bulb house?

 

and 10 other problems im having...

: )

Not starting right up, Left pull when breaking,,

Rattles

Windows

Hatch rattles

Taking it to another dealership Tuesday

 

If your tC headlights are anything like those on my xA (I assume they probably are) there is a rubber "boot" that is over the rear plug assembly. You need to MAKE SURE you get that re-seated correctly when you replace bulbs. That's your weather protection.

 

The tc does not have a boot like you are describing. It just seals via a rubber oring on the bulb itself. If the bulb was not seated correctly it could cause moisture to seep in. I changed my bulbs in the rain and a little water got inside but it evaporated and hasnt come back since.

 

Hatch and sunroof rattles are common with tC's, Jason. There has been a service bulletin for sometime now. Just get them fixed when you return to the dealer and be sure you take them in the car to hear the rattles. I wonder if the pull is bad brake bias or something. I don't have that in any of my cars.
