Anooying Fabia Prob

Featured Replies

I have this problem of bloody awful condensation in my fabia.. Dosent seem to matter what the weather or temperature is.. I get back to the car after being at work etc and it's always the same. First thing i thought was there must be water getting in somewhere so changed all the door seals but no.. no change!

Does any of you guys out there know of any venting issues etc that could be causing this??

Cheers

Filter lives under the glove box. You will find two plastic clips that slide towards the centre of the filter housing cover. Cover then pulls out, and filter frame can be removed. Filter should be changed every 10,000 miles. Also check the plenum chamber below the windscreen (outside) isn't blocked with leaves etc.

Much apprciated moggy, will get cracking with that then.. The cars more than likely never had one, u know what dealers are like....

you say you've done all the door seals, does that mean you have sealed the inner door panels up ?

if not, then that could be the cause of your condensation problem
