no,i wish.. ;)
but for the past couple of mornings,the car has had a condensation problem inside on damp mornings,now the air conditioning in on and working,car appears to be running fine (although,the temp gauge takes a little longer to get to the middle of the gauge,suspect the thermostat),sure the symptoms are not linked,but any suggestions the on "steamy windows".... ???

hi craig

check the carpet near the heater matrix and the drainage pipes under the windscreen.

hi andrew...
carpet is dry,and the drainage pipes were checked and the valves cleaned out about a month ago,the problem seems to be mainly in the rear window and on the rear near side passenger window.... :-/

In that case, check:
- that the doors shut ok
- all the rubber insulations

If one of the windows is still more wet then others, try to clean them with a galss cleaning liquid (all of them)

Check for a pair of randy Leprechauns hiding in boot....particularly in the spare wheel well where they have a habit of removing the wheel so they can hide under the carpet!!!

What? you dion't believe me?
