This happened again to me yesterday on my 2021. It is probably the fourth time in the last 2.5 yrs of ownership. So very infrequent. Small 8-10" 1/16" wide line of clear oil coming down inside of windshield from rear view mirror attachment area. Tried to take pictures, but hard to get them in the daylight that would be worth sharing. Seems common on other forums, and reported to be the rain sensor, which maybe that is why mine doesn't seem that smart. Don't recall ever seeing anything on this site about this. If it happened more often, I'd probably take it to the dealer, but not sure it is worth my time currently to make a visit for it, maybe next time it is in for something else.

Anyone else experience this ?
