fogging of bottom of windscreen
« on: May 18, 2010, 03:46:45 PM »
anyone experience fogging of their windscreen at the lower portion of it? Think the cold air coming out from the long slim vents on the dashboard nearest the windscreen is the culprit. Have tried closing the air vent at the centre of the dashboard mend for air circulation to the back passengers but that does not solve the issue. So there's always this line of condensation at my front windsreen when the air outside is cold and humid.

Anyone got any solution to this?

I tried this method, nt sure whether it is correct, only just started trying a while only:
If fogging is outside, mean the inside temp is too cold, so increase the aircon temp a little
If fogging is inside, mean the outside temp is colder den inside, so decrease the aircon temp a little.
Dun noe whether my theory work a not, still trying out. Btw, i am referring to the fogging of the whole windscreen till very jia lag, nt the small portion tat i am talking about.
