In the sort of weather we have at the moment everyone with their heaters on all the time. When the hot air inside the car cools it shrinks and draws damp air in. Best option if you have one is to stick a dehumidifier in there for a few hours now and again. Or if you have heater on drive with a window slightly open to eject the moist air as it is drawn out of the interior by warming. Look in the wheel well if there is water in there it's the back door seal leaking.

Run the aircon, it's the best de-humidifier, set the HEVAC to recirculate and keep the windows shut, that will dry the air in the car.
 
check the windows. i have a leak in the front windscreen seal. im waiting till one of the chips in it becomes a crack and then im going to get autoglass to replace it. might have a working heated screen then as well. !!

And the added bonus this weather is you won't need to have the snip, as it will freeze you balls off. If you are one of the lucky ones whos aircon actually works that is.:D:D:D

Absolutely not. The Aircon cools the air which is then re-heated by the heater to produce the desired cabin temperature. Totally eliminates window misting in wet weather if used properly.
