Default Condensation

Hi - Is it normal to get a fair amount on condensation in the car after rain? my windscreen gets a lot and the other day it was behind the rev counter!! although this soon cleared!

IS there a particular type of car cover that fits well? as my car is now kept outside..

Thanks

Moved to the correct forum.

Never had a condensation problem in my S, whenever it rains, I use the AC to demist the car.

Car's in the garage, so I have no need / experience of car covers, but someone will come along & comment.

Ive got the same problem, but i have the infamous puddle in the boot, so i presume its coming from there.

Due for a service @ honda in March, so hopefully going to sort it out then.

I get a little condensation but a drive with the temperature set to The max drys out the roof nicely and you don't get the issue anymore. However you are left with extremely Betty Swallocks!
I think I've heard a few mention that after treating the vinyl with 303 etc, that takes care of the problem too as it gives it the water resistance it needs.
