good afternoon guys, somebody must have some suitable suggestions for me please. I've noticed that after a down pour i get condensation on my n/s/r window, n/s/r 1/4 glass and rear window its obviously an attack of water but does anybody know where it could be from? maybe a door seal or maybe even sunroof seal as driveway is a slight incline? Any thoughts or suggestions muchly appreciated!!

Two people. And a hose. The roof seam does sometimes leak and can appear. In odd places with capillary action.

Take the side trim off in the boot and check the electronics are dry. Water penetration is a common problem. RR's are really designed to be kept in an airconditioned garage, they don't like water from above or below LOL.

if your drive isnt level, could be the heat left in the car once you've been in it rises to the back window and condensates ?

If the aircon is used, the air in the car should be dry

Why own a vehicle fitted with AirCon and not use it...

Aircon should be run all the time, it keeps all the electronics and connectors free of corrosion, stops the interior misting in winter and aircon compressors die if not run occasionally. It makes the best part of bugger all difference to the fuel consumption on these overweight lumps.

Aircon should be run always.....set the temp at 22 and leave it at that all year round.....as data says fuel consumption is negligible...

Did you get an answer on this one? If not could it be the door needs re-aligned. Do you get a little pool of water splashing on ground when you open door? If so it may be same issue as I had and was given an answer by nice chaps on here. Apparently it's a known issue that the rear doors may need re-aligning. This could be the cause of your condesation.
Mine went away when I got the doors sorted
