dunno if this is the right place to put this but it will do.

for the last week or so everyday in the morning my windows have been steamed up. i didnt think any thing of it untill i looked at the rest of the cars on my street and they arnt misted up atall?

i kno its to do with it bein warmer inside the car than outside but its starting to worry me, because thers so much moisture in there that the bk seats are damp and the rear window literally has water dripping off, and it will probably mess up my brand new speakers!!!

is there nething i can do to get rid of the moisture thas already in the car, to prevent it from evaporating onto my windows in the first place?

ne1 else had the same problem?

[wobbit]

ne body?

[pierce]

are the carpets wet, cause mine used to do the same, becauce the rear screen was leaking

[wobbit]

no, just the bk seats, its not leakin either, weird

[pdaykin]

If your back seats are damp then it sounds like you have a leak. Favourite spot is the rear window - any tell-tale staining ? Or it cold also be the petrol tank neck, side windows, or if you are really unlucky the wheel arches

yep you have a leak it might be small but you have one :smartass:

[wobbit]

DOH :gasp: i think the rear side windows leak abit tho

[Sprocket]

well there you go :cheese:


My advice :cheese: Replace the lot. Every bit of rubber. Seals will be tired, worn, perished and gone hard and seal very little. It does not cost that much either.

[wobbit]

are they easy to replace?

[binge]

P155 Easy! :tongue:

If you have pop out windows on the back, Then even easier!!! The seals just pull off, and push back on!

Just found this post again.....funnily enough mines now doing exactly the same!

She's just got back from the garage and I've a feeling (from what I've just read) that he may not have put the rubber seals in properly as she never leaked before she went to the garage and I know he took the windows out!

Do you think thats what it could be? I'm hoping it's nothing more serious than that as don't thinkI can afford for it to be anything more than that!
How much are new windows seals does anyone know? Are they easy to get hold of?

Cheers, Sian

I've seen 'em over at MiniSpares running in at around a tenner...I think. I'm going to do the seal replacement thing on Monty as soon as I can to see if that puts paid to the swimming pool in the passenger side footwell.

it would of been better if they had used new seals when refitting the glass , old ones never go back in right :cheese:
