Somewhere here on the org. I have read that VW sprays beeswax on the inner side of the metal panels.(This is prolly where the famous crayola smell comes from.)

It's this that may be the problem. It's really sticky and would attract road dirt and brake dust to make it look like a streak.

I've had it appear on my windows in the Summer.

Maybe the temps will rule this out for you, but it's just a guess.

Oh yeah, goo gone worked for me.
