Was wondering if anyone is facing the same issue. I noticed on my 2024 992 GT3RS that there are finger prints on the lens of my PDLS LED Matrix lights (pictures below).

Took my car to the dealership and they mentioned that all 23 and 24 GT3s that were in for servicing at the time had this issue, but all of the other cars/ models didn’t. They said that they would raise this with Porsche but it’s been a month with no reply so far.

Don’t want to seem very OCD but this doesn’t seem to be up to Porsche Standards, I personally own many cars ranging from Mercedes to Range Rovers and never seen this issue before !

In comparison my 2024 Range Rover Vogue, notice the lens is perfectly clean with no marks what so ever.

I've never seen fingerprints on my MY 23 GT3 Touring's headlights.
I have no PPF on them. No chips or marks either.

That would bug me as well. On the bright side though, they should be able to figure out who belongs to those prints.

You needed to to step up to the PDLS Lights with no fingerprint option. It's a premium above the standard. Good luck.

🤣🤣🤣🤣 I will ask them to replace them, they showed me two other GT3s and a Dakkar with the same issue, let’s see if anyone else notices. Doesn’t seem like it’s something that someone would normally spot.

Mine doesn't have fingerprints, but there is haziness/fog on the lens. I noticed it right away but somehow my OCD didn't kick in enough to mention it. It's a '24 delivered in October

Not directly related but pretty comical. Without going into details, I took delivery of my GT3 without having it cosmetically dealer prepped. Once I got it home, noticed the smiley face and handprints on the rear glass.

I’ve seen this on BMW’s before.

Never seen this before. Definitely not normal. The assembly of headlights is done in gloves, so this would be impossible during the normal process. Could it be that the headlights needed to be adjusted after delivery to the destination country or something like that?

Reminds me how years ago my M3 arrived from a US dealer to Canada with vent grilles not fully popped in and covers missing on a couple of interior lights. I gave the dealer a very angry call but then discovered a note in the car that said it was partially disassembled by border agents for screening (my luck). I guess they were looking for drugs or something else in vents and lights and did not put it back fully. But it's probably not this - you can't hide anything in a transparent headlight, besides maybe diamonds, LOL.

Looks like Porsche is starting to have the problems the rest of us are having… hard to find good help these days!
