Thank you guys!

So I took my Z4 in to the dealer for a brake light problem. Turned out to be the classic "fish tank inside the brake light" that other members here have seen.

If I haven't been on this forum, it would've ended here with me going back to the dealer every 6000 miles with flooded lights.

Anyways, I told the CSR it's a common problem. She BS'ed and says it isn't.

Checked the forums again. Saw something about a PUMA bulletin on the issue. Called the dealer back. Told her to find that bulletin.

So now I am getting 2 new brake lights, redesigned to fix the water seepage problem.

Thanks guys!

I have condensation in one of my taillights. Is that what you're referring to?
