Anhartic Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 Recently, the inside of my S204's windscreen has been experiencing frost buildup after consecutive days of frigid temperatures. I do not see any apparent signs of wear and tear on the seals or any other visible issues. I am contemplating if the seldom use of the vehicle, with intervals of 3-4 days without driving, would be the underlying cause. Could you please provide any observations?

CrawlerTagz Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 Consider using silica gel, a moisture-absorbing substance, in your automobile to address the issue. I use this product during periods of inactivity for the autos, sometimes referred to as "hibernation" (purchased from Amazon). One kilogramme This product is a reusable dehumidifier bag with silica gel that effectively absorbs moisture and dampness. It has a color-changing indicator to show when it needs to be replaced. Additionally, it includes an anti-slip pad for stability. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kenjibb Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 An other choice is automotive litter. Purchase a bag, allocate a portion of its contents into a worn-out sock, secure the sock by tying a knot, and place it on the dashboard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mantelle Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 Do you continuously operate the air conditioning system? Is the air conditioning functional? Is there any moisture present on the front carpets or in the wheel well of the boot? Does the automobile only do short trips, so preventing the air conditioning system from adequately removing moisture? Apply gummi care to all the door and trunk seals. Inspect all the drainage openings on the front windscreen. Has the pollen filter been changed within the last several years? Verify that there is no water flowing down the windscreen scuttle and into the area where the pollen filter connects with the bulkhead in the engine bay.

KnightNewscast Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 If the purpose is to maintain the mouse population by using their collective body heat to keep the inner screen from freezing, it could actually prove to be counterproductive.

CrownChikk Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 If there is moisture present on the inside, it indicates the presence of a leak. I recommend examining the carpets and the floor of the trunk to identify the source of the leak and determine the location where the moisture is originating from. My automobile never experiences interior freezing, whereas my wife's car often does due to a persistent leak that gradually fills up the spare wheel well. Unfortunately, I have been unable to locate the origin of the water infiltration. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
