Windscreen bubbles??

I have a 55 plate SE with 15k on the clock, not long ago i noticed little bubbles on the windscreen mmm??? after a bit of rubbing with glass cleaner the penny dropped Rolling Eyes realised that they were between the lam glass.
Just wondering if anybody else had had this??

 If it moves and got an engine, can't be that bad??

sounds like overheating. But I suppose you do not use heated windshield in summer Whistle

I've had similar issues with both my FL2's with heated windscreens. I presume that you also have heated windscreen, right? Whistle
I believe it's a manufacturing defect, nothing much you can do. PM me if you need any details.

Not doubting you, but i've not heard of any FL2's having this problem Confused

How big are these bubbles?

Hi npinks,
They are less than 1/2 mm and I've only seen one in my FL2. I am driven to believe that they come alive through extreme heat conditions. I cannot be certain abour what causes them, I'm just speculating here.
