hey any of you guys have a problem with the car alwayyyys fogging up if the windows and roof are shut and AC is off? mine does and its annoying

 

...i thought that's what defrost is for . You live in Washington dude, a rainy state. You should be used to the humidity lol.

 

Greetings from the NW. Lol. My car can't go 5 min with the defroster off or else the humidity goes nuts. I almost been killed cuz of that damn fog lol.

I guess my opinion would be to bear it out for probably another month and a half and hope we get clear sunny skies.

 

just crack open the sunroof.

 

crack open the windows a little and go for a drive...within 5mins it will defrost without u even puttin ur defroster on...

 

lawl yeah, ahmen on the northwest....like others suggested, perhaps crack your windows to help....that's where the window visors come in handy when its pouring. Otherwise, it's common and pretty much the only way to alleviate it is through the ac/defroster

 

Florida.. same problem, anyone ever tried use mask defog spray on the inside of the windows?

 

^ wha in the wha now???

Stuff like that, we used to use it in paintball and such.. Doesn't last more than a few hours for diving... but depending on conditions i wonder if it would last in a car? Wish they'd make a more concentrated one for cars... but there is a lot less pressure on that windshield than a diving mask... and the temperatures are different, i kinda wanna try it in a part of my windshield and test.

 

I don't drive my CL in the rain or winter

 

+1 on cracking the windows. Do it on a very dry day, and go for a drive. What I do for my car is put news paper under my floor mats because they pick up most of the moisture off my boots. After a snowy week I throw it out and go for a drive with the A/C on blasting hard through the floor vents.

Best preventative to this is to knock any snow off your boots before you get into your car, not leaving wet clothes (gym clothes or gym bag) in there and simply keeping as much moisture out of there as possible.

 

also make sure your recirculate button on the climate control isnt pushed on..i find that that keeps the moisture in

 

ya thats what i do, i always just keep the sunroof tilted (plus it looks cooler that way ) and run the car without the AC on. i was just wonderin if i was perhaps having a problem with the defrost workin but seeings as its a common complaint ill guess no. plus the when the fans kick on for my AC is roughens the idle, and it bugs the hell outta me. the honda tech at work said its cuz the old fans draw more amperage and thus put a higher strain on the engine.
