I friend of mine noticed that the front left turn signal on the fender was full of moist and water. And the car is only three weeks old. Last weekend I was driving in heavy rain for a few hours. I think that is what did it rather than me washing the car.
Anyone else having the same problem?

I assume you mean the small turn signal in fender. I had the same fault in my former E60 530iA/04, it took one minute to change it myself. The dealer gave the part for free. The original one was broken and moisture got in.
It?s of course a pity to have problem with a brand new Bimmer, but this problem is very easy and quick to fix.
Good luck with your new ride, I think you have chosen a very good colour
Regards,
Jukka

As Jukka, I suppose it's the side blinker but if it is in the light-cluster, mist will go away - but not wather.
Pic of mist.

The light clusters have a ventilation system,
as BMW Service tells us now.

Are you talking about the fender light or the one in the front end light cluster?
As Jukka, I suppose it's the side blinker but if it is in the light-cluster, mist will go away - but not wather.

I'll contact the dealer later and will have the blinker fixed.
