first one? DTRL condensation - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Lee358 · 09-20-2012, 05:59 PM

i went to meet up with a friend today and we were looking over by brz with just about 2000 miles and 3 months on it, and he says "dude i dont want to ruin the rest of your day but there is condensation in your day time running light." So that being said off i go to my dealer ship to the service department. The service writer takes a look at it sees there indeed is condensation and says. "im going to order the light for you and i want you to leave it here the night before we do the work so we can check to see if there is any condensation in any other lights. if you see any before you bring it in again call me let me know ill order that part as well."

So the new day time running light is being ordered and ill look out for moisture in my tail lights before they do the dtrl and they will change those also.

i have pictures on my phone ill post them in a little while.

Yea, I have had condensation in my DTRL also. Not enough to worry about but unsettling none the less.

Thought I'd bring this up. Both my DRLs have this as well. Already stopped at the dealership and they're ordering me new lights as we speak. They said they'll call me when they're in so they can install them. I also asked them to check the TSB on the fuel pump since it'll be in for warranty work.

I didn't search...shame on me.

I noticed condensation in both of mine last night.

I had my replaced by the dealer. Just make sure you bring it in while the condensation is still there. Back order on parts tho so had to wait 3 weeks.

xDBOYx · 02-22-2013, 06:34 PM

Uh oh. I need to keep an eye on mine. Thanks for the heads up

Cameronghanson · 02-25-2013, 08:22 PM

yeah just noticed mine have them too. Already replaced the tail lights twice for this.
