C220d. W205. 60k miles.
On a winter morning as I started her up I heard cracking noises from the headlights. I was outside shovelling snow off the driveway.
Since then, there have been beads of water inside both lights. Condensation does not clear with hours of driving and lights on.
It took a while to get an appointment.
The dealership refused it as warranty claim.
I am informed that goodwill is unlikely too.
Is there an aftermarket manufacturer of these fancy multi-beam lights please?
It is £1,672 per light otherwise. Add £600 if modules have gone.
Although I have maintained her at cost no object for some reason this is a little hard to stomach.
Anything else I can do to sway the dealer? I wish there was some bulletin stating a known fault.
Thank you.
