this is really pissing me off,, last night all my side windows wouldnt demist and I had to drive 45 mins with my windows open just so I can see if im about to merge into anyone.. that's in 1 degree weather :(

no matter how I put the heater/ac it doesnt get rid of the side windows,, only were the mirror is because of the vents there.. any products that you use to make no fog?

Nice mining! :diggit:

You can get a rain-x anti fog product that works well...but are your windows tinted? Could be just dirty?

I must admit the climate control is not very good at removing the fog. Waited 15 minutes this morning and half the windscreen was ok. I suppose it's ok as I always see some poor guy without air con on a rainy day driving around trying to wipe the fog off.

You'd think they would tell people when you get your license that the recirculate button is a no no in the rain.

I'm more concerned that there are no heaters in the side mirrors so they never get better!!

I have the a/c on, fresh not recirculate, if its really bad wind the window down a inch to get a flow going.

Just a thought , when was the last time your a/c was serviced? That magic gas doesnt last forever.

My taxi hasn't been fogging up this winter, but I keep the windows clean. The side windows are easy enough - the day driver does them with Windex and a teatowel.

I do the inside of the windscreen with a window squeegee. Ask at somewhere like Coventrys. You want the Mallory brand one (apparently they are the world specialist in window squeegees). They come in different length handles.

If you get the long handle one and you're not completely short then you'll also be able to reach over and clean the outside of the windscreen with one wipe instead of having to swap sides to squeegee the water off.

For the inside of the windscreen, I unscrew the wooden handle and do the inside like any other window. I use a clean towel to finish off the bits of water that then build up at the bottom of the windscreen.

It only takes a minute or two, and sure beats stuffing around waving towels everywhere for ages.

Was sure this was gunna be about the fg.

My ba I had no probs at all with demister. It pretty much instantly dun its job when turned on.

My fg however is annoying the piss out of me. I hate the entire command centre. The demister is that bad that I have no idea if I even turned it on. As for the rest of the controls. Theres bits of sh*t everywhere. Some is on left, some is on righ, some goes across both sides, some thimgs have one button that turns on and off, some things have 2 buttons 1 for on 1 for off.

I have never had to take my eyes off the road for as long as in my fg when simply trying to find the radio off button, or ac on or off. Then pressing and pressing and pressing until the temp is set to what I want, then workin out how to change to feet only, rememvering where that button lives, then it goes to auto then chsnging back to recirc, ats propper ghey.

Dont even start me on bluetooth.
