Whats up with my windsheild fogging up @ night so badly?!?!?!? The defogger doesnt seem to effect it whatsoever. Any one eles having this problem in the 05's? -Or know what I can do to stop it?

front windshield? turn AC on with the vent going up to the windshield.. if the back one, then I dunno..

mine did that this morning

turn on the defogger, and rasie the temp up to 80+, it will take a few seconds, but it will clear up. you can then turn the temp to normal, and it will be fine

Yeah, its the fornt, driving me nutz. G/f's kid is like, whats all over the windshield? Seems to be worse for me @ night. Always in the middle an grows upward to about 1/2 way up the glass.

mine does it too. I just defog for a few seconds, then it doesn't come back

It's probably because of the weather condition... humidity and whatnot.

It's a good idea to have some anti-fog wipes handy for times like this.

Actually a lot of new cars have petroleum based dash boards. For the first few months it still seeps out and sticks to the windshield, constantly causing it to fog. Try using windex every day, that may help. Eventually the problem should subside(once the dash has done all the "seeping" it can).

Make sure that recirculate is off. If it's on then you will experience the problem you described.

I think you're talking about the "residue film" or "smoke film" that smears when wiped, crazymjb. Fogging only occurs when there's a difference between the outside and inside temp, with humidity being a factor.

It might just be worth your while to try defrost setting... even though it is not

frost so to speak. Especiallly if you start the car with the climate control system

on. It re-starts in the last positon it was left on, and can cause this misting problem when you first re-start your car.

this may be a repeat solution..
