Evening all.

Does anyone have any issues with condensation? My 72 plate N line S seems to have big issues. As soon as you jump in and hit start the condensation appears and takes ages to clear. It pretty annoying.

I had that issue the past two days so glad I'm not alone. It was so bad yesterday evening(car hadn't moved since 8am) that around 7pm I had to get my windscreen cloth and it was wet through by the time I cleared the front window. Cut to this morning the car had its usual cold weather gloss on the inside(normal), outside was frozen over. I am putting it down to two elements, the sharp change in the weather(for me it will return to 14c tomorrow) so the cold snap is gone so the condensation will also go. I did also remove the wind deflectors from the front windows yesterday evening as well to remove that tiny element where the window doesn't close fully just in case.

In Summary, I agree it is annoying but I think it is normal.

I've never had a condensation issue in cold weather.

I do leave my aircon switched on permanently.

It’s the only way to ensure longevity of the components. I can’t think of any downside.
