Strange misty patch on auto dimming mirror - Now resolved!

Only just got the car (which is great) and found a slight issue with the rear view mirror. Driving home I thought it was a mark or condensation but it doesn't wipe off.

Here are the best pics I could get:

Does it alter when you dim the mirror, (shine a light on the sensor at the bottom centre of mirror)

When it does dim, I couldn't notice the misty patch but in normal conditions it is always there. I have emailed the pics to the dealer but I just thought I would ask on here. 60 plate SD4 XS, Stornoway Grey, Arm rest pack

Hi again,

This issue is still present and I have decided to take it to my local LR dealer this week to have it looked at. Before I do, has anyone got any opinions on what might be the problem? 60 plate SD4 XS, Stornoway Grey, Arm rest pack

Took the car to Hunters in Derby today and there is a fault with the mirror and it will be done under warranty. No mirror in stock so it will be in on Wednesday morning and fitted while I wait Very Happy

Got a free wash and vac as well. 60 plate SD4 XS, Stornoway Grey, Arm rest pack
