Re: What is Happening to My Lens?

How much buffing and rubbing have you performed?  There have been a few threads from owners who have damaged the coating.  Also, look up the blog at LensRentals to see their experience with affecting the top coat.   Although it goes against conventional wisdom, some of the newer lenses are more easily damaged than what people think.  If you have not done a lot of excessive cleaning then it's probably reflection from sunscreen residue.  Although it's annoying, if it's not affecting the IQ, I would leave it alone.
