That was a bit uncalled for beemer!

A friend of mine had a similar problem. They simply left their car open on a hot day and the problem never came back. I doubt thats of any use with the current weather though. Sorry I couldn't be of more help GUNNER!

gunner- a mate of mine owned a 1.4 rt 93 and had corrosion on one of the metal brackets the windscreen sits on, on the passenger side. He found a gapping hole, which was causing a leak thus condensation, got it repaired under warranty.

OK,Boy's
Thank's for the quick replies,the dampness make's sense
now.I know for a fact the offside rear footwell flooded the other day due to a dodgy door catch.Look's like i've got some drying
out to do then!!!!.
Beemer no offence taken ,in fact i had a little chuckle to my self
when i read it.There's still some of us left that hav'nt had a sense of humour by-pass.
Checked out the clio site,will get my daughter to registar so she can do her own bloody homework!!,I'll still have to do the repair's though...

Thank's again
MIKE....

Replace the pollen filter, they tend to get damp after a while and start to leak causing condensation to build up, costs about a tenner.

Not sure if this is relevant to a 92, but a friend had a 98 on which the alarm was playing up. Turned out to be the aerial leaking water into the roof area where the module is mounted, could be the cause of your condensation if water is getting in.
