Windscreen condensation - help!

[mattwillco]

Hello all,

Every time I am going to the driveway at the moment, I find the windscreen to be fogged up, no matter what time of day. This seems to be exclusively happening to the windscreen. What are the possible problems?

We don't use the air con too much. I cannot find any moisture in the footwells.
The amount of moisture is definitely more than I should be expecting.

Would be interested to hear responses as this has recently started happening with my Altea.

There is already a lot of discussion and suggestions here http://www.seatcupra.net/forums/showthread.php?t=358140

You will actually benefit by using AC, after a long run turn it off a minute or so before you get home.

Condensation inside the windows has got to be one of the biggest SEAT owners' issues. Especially at this time of year. There are hundreds of posts on this site as a whole. People have different ideas on dealing with it - but to my knowledge, nobody has really prevented it.

I have found using the air con more helps no end as it does remove the moisture generated by the difference in temperatures at the moment. Doesnt help fuel economy much though !

If when you start your Altea you can hear clicking coming from behind the heat control panel, its usually an indication of a loose connection/wire. Managed to remove it yesterday had to reconnect one, Shall see what the near future holds
