woodst Posted November 9, 2017 Share Posted November 9, 2017 Anyone got any idea why my windows are misting up, even if the car is just sitting there on the drive? Could it be the window seals and if so how do you now which one you? No leaks can be found all seams dry. Wipe clear, car heats up and clears the rest. Turn off and within 30 mins it bloody back. No loss of water so can't see its the matrix. Only happens when its cold so thinking it's window seals and ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Dnk Posted November 10, 2017 Share Posted November 10, 2017 (edited) Get a dehumidifier, i use Pingi bags in my convertible as that suffers badly in this weather. once they're full you dry them out in the microwave and pop them back in the car https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/BARGAIN-2-x-PINGI-450G-XL-DEHUMIDIFIER-BAGS-RECHARGEABLE-MOISTURE-CAR-CARAVAN/222613001759?_trkparms=aid%3D222007%26algo%3DSIM.MBE%26ao%3D2%26asc%3D49130%26meid%3Dd3e43c40d6d4474e8d045f8255fe616c%26pid%3D100005%26rk%3D3%26rkt%3D3%26sd%3D322330178126&_trksid=p2047675.c100005.m1851 Edited November 10, 2017 by Dnk (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Al Massey Posted November 10, 2017 Share Posted November 10, 2017 As above, moisture is in the car. Silica gels are great for it, and so is cat litter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tyson Posted November 10, 2017 Share Posted November 10, 2017 As above, moisture is in the car. Silica gels are great for it, and so is cat litter +1 for cat litter. Tray on the dash and one on the parcel shelf should do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dnk Posted November 11, 2017 Share Posted November 11, 2017 I thought about using cat litter but the pingi bags are much less hassle and no chance of a messy accident Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Havard Posted November 12, 2017 Share Posted November 12, 2017 +1 for cat litter. Tray on the dash and one on the parcel shelf should do it. Also gives you somewhere for your cat to park it's breakfast... I would go with big bags of silica gel off ebay or cheaper but could be messy is a tuppaware box full of rice.... H.
