RE: Interior Fog?
The past few days I've just been using the defrost. It does help, but the problem is not gone. With the defrost on, it just takes longer for the windows to fog up.
I've been trying to find how to get to the air intake flap to check on that... JG, can you send the bulletin to belgianalien@gmail.com?
Thanks!

RE: Interior Fog?
I dont really get one thing/.
Jag genius said a few times to put the fan on high, and hit the recirc button on and off a few times.. and listen to the noise.. He is a tech from a dealer, and if you brought the car in to him with that problem he would do that first. (maybe feel if the carpets are wet too)
but so far.. everyone wants the tsb.. but nobody has replied to the two basic things??
I mean the dealer telling you the carpets were shampooed is one thing, but is it really too much to ask to touch them? hahahah? and to push a button on the dash and listen?

RE: Interior Fog?
The carpets are damp. Snow is getting tracked into the car several times a day. We've got slush mats, but those are damp, too. I really can't hear much of a difference with the recirc on or off, so I think that might be part of the problem. I just wanted the tsb in case I decide to take the car apart to look at that air intake flap... I'm not sure I am comfortable doing that with a car I just bought...[&:] My wife might not be too pleased with that either[sm=chairshot.gif] ... Either way, I won't be attempting it until the carpets are dry... in a few months, looking at the weather here. I just wanted to tsb in case it was quite simple to get to the flap... which it does not seem to be[>:]
Either way, I just joined the forums, and boy am I glad I did... tons of great info on here! [sm=smiley20.gif]

RE: Interior Fog?
I suggest you put a newspaper section under each floor matt and change it weekly. that will keep your carpets dry.
The other technique that works well is screaming and slapping anyone that does not knock off the snow from their feet when they get into the car.
It is totally disrespectful, and a total lack of concern for other people's property to just swing your dirty and slushy boots into anyone's car. If you tell someone to please get the snow off their footwear, make sure they dont start bashing their feet up against the side skirts, that will damage them too. They need to tap their feet together outside the car.
Even my grandmother does it.

JG can you pls e-mail me the tsb also amit.kareer@fmr.com, maybe it would be best to just post it up here so everyone can see it opposed to everyone asking you to e-mail it out.
Thanks.

RE: Interior Fog?
UPDATE!
Today: a balmy 22F compared to the single digits we've had in the past few weeks. Still fogging up a bit, but there's an obvious difference in how fast and how much. I don't know for sure what it means, but I thought it would be worth my time posting an update on it.
Later!

RE: Interior Fog?
Looking over the bulletin, just wondering, I have noticed that when I set the heat to blow on feet only with the recirc button on and off that air for some reason does not blow to the feet area. Even if I set it on face and feet I still do nto feel air on the feet. Could fixing this damper door also fix this problem or do I have another problem to fix?
