Stephenmacleod Posted November 19, 2019 Report Share Posted November 19, 2019 getting a build up of condensation, especially so in my pop outs. windscreen and front windows dont seem to be as bad. No obvious signs of water getting in, no wet footwells etc. Any ideas? pollen filter maybe? Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mk2 Posted November 19, 2019 Report Share Posted November 19, 2019 Same here... my first thought is front door card seals. So I'll be pulling the lower cards off each door to investigate- leccy window repair without resealing it in the past is my best guess. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Loop Posted November 19, 2019 Report Share Posted November 19, 2019 First thing I'd check is the pollen filter. Replace if not been replaced in a long time or unsure when it was last done. Then as mk2 said 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Timer Posted December 12, 2019 Report Share Posted December 12, 2019 Hi, I too have a build up of condensation (05 Black GTI)... I've traced mine to a water build up in the tailgate... When I open the tailgate the water can flow out though a hole in the base, but not when it's closed. Might be worth looking at? May I ask if anyone else has had the same problem, and how they solved it? The car is swathed in clingfilm ready for investigation in the spring...

Old Timer Posted December 13, 2019 Report Share Posted December 13, 2019 Hi mk2... Huh! Guess I over stated the case with "swathed"... But it does the trick! Dry interior, and no flow out of the tailgate when lifted (and the cling film stays intact)... In store for the winter now, cozy and dry 😉 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
