Frost

Post by RenRenRen »

Last winter I got frost buildup on the inside of my windscreen, just started again tonight. Does this mean there's a bad seal somewhere letting moisture into the car, or is it just something I have to live with?

It's much less than on the outside, but it's a bugger to scrape off as it takes time and just lands all over the dash/seats :(

ouch ... check all your seals .. doors ,windows,sunroof ,(if applicable) .. time consuming but you probably will find a damaged seal and they are dead easy to replace 2 :)

Thats a good shout. I had an old mini as my first car, one morning i had frost on the inside sh!t me pants, turnt out to be a rag i used to stop frost on the outside of the windscreen. The rag was wet and i had just thrown it behind my seat. Defo worth having a look to see if you have any damp items kicking about the car
