It's normal.... Pg110 of the manual

In cold or damp weather conditions, the headlights, tail lights and turn signals may mist up inside temporarily. This is normal and in no way effects the useful life of the vehicle lighting system.

This is not normal in the rear lights, had both my rear lights replaced under warranty have not seen any condensation since.

Try search this has been covered a few times.

Had another look after reading the other links and there does appear to be a small crack on the inside, about 3/4 of the way up on the outer edge.

Just been to the dealer, to start of with the it's normal to get condensation etc. Then mentioned the small crack on the inside, so damage not covered by the warranty. So mentioned the bulleting about the problem and they then looked it up and seemed genuinely surprised when they found it. Looking at the bulleting mine was in the early stages of the cracking. So booked in for Thursday to have it replaced, and to be fair to the dealer they were good with the way they dealt with me.

Its good that they're sorting it for you, but I must say I find it a little worrying how often us customers seem to know more about these procedures than the people selling the blooming things...

Took mine in and they changed them no problem.

Anyone elses rear lights have a little hole in each section? I assume this is to stop the condensation

It took me a total of 6 visits to the dealer and a lot of phone calls to SEAT CS to get mine swapped.

I hope you have better luck than I did!
