In regards to my original post 3 years ago... I guess I didn't read Nept Mica's post very well... but since then, my RX has had both of it's HID headlights replaced twice due to condensation. My dealer has worked out every problem for me, which is why I think Lexus loyalty is strong. My warranty has since ran out (I'm almost at 55K as of 3/18/07) and I'm just crossing my fingers that nothing major happens!!

I hope the replacements have improvements to prevent the moisture problem. I've also had both of mine replaced (2005 model). You can bet I'll be running the hose on both of them as I approach the warranty expiration.

When we first took delivery of our RX330 I noticed that there was slight condensation in the right headlite. It quickly dried out and disappeared so I didn't pay much mind to it. I have not seen any condensation in either headlite since then.
However after having it detailed I noticed that theres a "haze", more like a cloudy residue in the right headlitethat is noticable only when stared at.
My question is, is this due to the condensation? If so, will the dealer replace the headlite under warranty, or will they give me hell?
Any comments are greatly appreciated!

My factory warranty expires in September and I'm worried this issue will occur again.
