Ok three questions, two fairly easy I think, one really annoying one. Firstly, its a TD5 2004 so its got the facelift headlamps. Offside front lamp has an enormous amount of condensation inside it. Ive removed it dried it out (wifes hair dryer) refitted, having checked for a split, crack or indication of water penetration theres none. A few days later full of condensation, any ideas where this water is getting in?
Secondly the roof head lining Driver side at the front corner where the wind screen pillar joins the roof is soaking wet, not damp. Yes, Ive twin electric Sunroofs, so wheres the water getting in?
Thirdly the off side rear lamp cluster that contains the indicator and stop/tail light, has a problem. With lights turned on the rear offside tail light isnt working, changed the bulb and still not working. The brake light works, but not the tail light (yes, I know its the same bulb) so I changed the whole lamp units or rather switched to see if the unit was defective. The offside unit is fine and all lights work when tested in the nearside, I checked the nearside in the offside and sure enough the tail light didnt work. So on the process of elimination the lamp unit is fine. I even tested with the tow ball electrics disconnected and still the tail light didnt work. Theres power otherwise the brake light wouldnt work (its the same bulb) any ideas?
