The demister on my Xtype is not working. My local garage can't find the solution but say there is a leak on the air conditioning. I have booked a diagnosis at the main dealer but that is 60 pounds an hour. Has anyone had this problem. CB

 

I can think of two possible causes; if the (two) fuses that feed the electric heating function of the front windscreen are blown (they are located in the fuse grouping in the engine compartment, front right side) that could be your problem, or it may be that the 'fresh air/recirculated air' door in the heater assembly has failed in the 'recirculating' position, and you have too much humid air blowing on the windscreen. There is a thread on how to fix this rather common problem with the Xs
