Dirty Windows along edges

On a 2005/2006 CL, since our windows are 2 layers, are any of you experiencing this "yellowish" along the top edges where it is glued together?

It's impossible to get there and clean. It's really pissing me off.

Any ideas?

Thanks

At least I'm not the only one

Window tint it is then, hopefully that will make it less of a eyesore.

You will soon have bubbles between the panes.

The word you're searching for is delamination. Laminated glass is great for noise reduction but it looks like we're now all dealing with the downside of the process.

Yup, same here. Picked up a CL55 a few months back. Anyone had them replaced? Autoglass or equivalent? How much?

I had all four replaced at the main dealer in Spring. Glass was about £2.5k and labour £1k.

Makes a massive difference to the car though so totally worth it imo
