Is Condensation in Porsche Lights a Normal Occurrence?! Why Does it Happen?!

[@911aircooled5]

Good info Mason. Thx. We've discussed this very thing in the club and how our 992s have this issue. Looks crap! Why don't Porsche heat them then? My Toyota has LED lights and doesn't have this issue, yet cost me 1/10 of my 992.

Thank you very much 🙏🏼 No kidding?! Thats a great question I am not sure 🤔

My VWs used to do exactly the same thing, even on brand new cars. When I first saw it on my Porsche, I immediately thought VW parts bin! Funny how my BMWs don’t have this problem, or indeed any other new car I’ve owned in the last 2 decades! It might be acceptable for Porsche, but it looks terrible on an expensive car!

Yes my 992 S the rear brake lights both left and right had water ingress and were replaced. Then also the centre long strip cracked from the inside out

[@Pcarwhisperer]

Wow nuts! Any idea how the center strip cracked?

My 2009 Sonata and 2009 SL550 don't show condensation in the headlights....and I live in South Texas where the humidity is over 80% and both cars are garage kept.

Good information to know

Thank you! 😊

[@AnnCastro-r2j]

Great topic! I’ve always wondered about this. Thanks for explaining! We sent you an email, take a look.

[@Pcarwhisperer]

Glad to hear! Sorry but I did not seem to receive your email 🤔

Comes and goes

Correct Same situation to my 982, at the driver’s side tail light. Dealership service advisor mentioned about the “different” kind of condensation that needed to pay attention to.

Yes exactly will depend on an array of factors!
