It looks a little bit cold there. Probably just normal condensation from the temperature difference inside and outside of the unit. Should go away.

Yes, it is snow, and -3 degrees ! I am afraid that this moisture can burn my led lights ! Two days before I have a dashboard warning for turn signal back left, and when I come close to see, the led turn signal on the driver side but on the trunk dont work !!! Tomorow, work normally but I am afraid that this moisture can be danger again for led lights...

It shouldnt get wet there...check the bulb panels if they close properly...make sure you dry taillights and panels first..
Or your taillights are hair cracked..
ps...jel skupo odrzavati audi u Beogradu?

I think that this kind of led taillights are sealed. Do I need to remove it ?!
Ps. Nije nesto posebno skupo, mada ima delova koji znaju da budu i skupi...

I had similar thing on my wife's A3. It happened because she bumped the tail light against something. It looked intact, but the join between clear red and back panels was undone. When I took the assembly off and was able to pull the red plastic panel away from the inner gray panel. I used some rubber glue to glue them together and it fixed the problem.
Notably, the moisture inside actually corroded the light assembly to the point it shorted and melted plastic in some space.
