Oily film on both front windows
I just bought a 2015 GS350 FSport in December 2014 and noticed an oily film on both front windows. This happens whenever I wash my car and wipe it down. I tried to wipe it w/ glass cleaners and detail spray but doesn't come off. It almost seems to be between the dual plain glass. Anyone else have this issue? Anyway to get rid of it? LMK.

Since this is a new vehicle, I'd ask the dealership to have a go at it. The side glass has a permanent water shedding coating applied and use of an abrasive cleaner or polish might partially remove it and make things worse. Let the dealer handle the problem and be responsible if they mess it up.

That's wrong. It's advertised as a titanium-silica coating. Teflon is a fluorocarbon.
