CelicaChez Posted January 13, 2012 Report Share Posted January 13, 2012 Can you help me please guys.... We had alot of ice this morning I went out to the car and it was iced up on the outside as you would expect trouble is it was also iced up on the inside too (not good!) I have nothing wet or damp in my car, does anyone know what this could be please? It is sooo annoying and need to sort it really if it is sortable, lol! Any ideas please?

Old Red Celica Posted January 13, 2012 Report Share Posted January 13, 2012 Well if you've not got any leaks, once it's dried out you would not suffer from condensation inside the car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bumblebee Posted January 13, 2012 Report Share Posted January 13, 2012 if you have had the car very warm inside the last time you used it , the warm air will hold moisture in it from the moist atmospheric air , when the car interior cools the moisture leaves the air and condenses out on the windows , you dont necessarily have to have water inside the car for this to happen just air with a high degree of moisture in it sorry not very good at explaining these things Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Serratia Posted January 13, 2012 Report Share Posted January 13, 2012 Don't forget its been really wet too and you be carrying water from your feet onto your Mats. This will then evaporate from your mats and condense on your windows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KrisSilver Posted January 14, 2012 Report Share Posted January 14, 2012 There's been a few topics on this, like this one. I compare the impact of the cold to all the cars on my road and there's clearly more to this and an issue with the seals or something on a lot of our beloved Celica's. I checked my seals and lubed them, not much different. Does anyone find that it's the front and rear windscreens that get icey on the inside but not the side windows. Is this normal or indicating where the leaks are? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
