Arnarge 2007
Front headlights are leaking water in
Would anyone know if the seal can be replaced so water will stop leaking in
Hope it’s not the complete headlight that needs replacing
Is their a setting to move headlights for when driving on right hand side of the roads ?
Many thanks

Good Morning Adam,
My 2006 Arnage had the same problem. I took it to Bentley Hampshire who advised that the whole headlight had to be changed - they said there was no quick fix. The new headlight was £1,600 plus 4 hours labour. I didn't have a baby - I had twins!

I have the old headlight at home and can see nothing wrong with it. In an idle winter moment I may explore sealing it with mastic - if I can find the leak point.

It was suggested to me that removal of the bulbs might allow warm air to be blown into the in to clear it. But it might happen again if you don't seal the leak.

We had this problem on a few old cars, well cars of the pre 80's era. This was dealt with by removing H/lamp and drilling a 1/16th in the bottom of the lamp to allow the water to run out again, also it stopped them misting up as well. Basic but it worked.

are you saying water is coming into all 4 headlamps.
