Driving my Puma is no pleasure at all these days but I can't afford to change it yet. Despite having heated front and rear windscreens, the side windows are constantly misted up with condensation running down them - and this is with the air con on full. I've tried every combination of heater/blowers etc... to no avail.
I'm sure this is a problem that has been creeping up for a while but now the cold weather is here I've really noticed it to the extent it totally distracts me when driving as I seem to be spending all my 'driving' time trying to keep the side windows clear - and short of driving with them wide open nothing works.
This may be a stupid question but is the air con packing up - or has it already done so? I've had the car the from new and it's now 5 years old and I don't recall ever having such a problem as this and I don't see any other cars on the road with the same problem.
Yesteday the left over condensation from over night was a sheet of ice INSIDE the car!
If it is the air con - how much will something like this cost to put right. I'm not a mechanic by any means.
many thanks
