So I got into the z at 12am this mirnjbf. It was 0 degrees outside. Outside of car was frozen up. Didn't have a scaper so started engine and blasted the window heaters on. After a few mins things started to clear up a bit but I noticed water streaks sliding down the middle of the window so put the wiper on. No change. First I thought the wipers weren't making contact with the screen then I realised these streaks were inside. There was a fair bit of water inside the car on the window and around the mirror affix in the middle. Never seen this before or had the problem.

Anyone seen this before? Sign of an issue, perhaps seals giving up or something? Or normal?

Aircon been switched on by accident?

Drive with the heat on and window down slightly. Should let the moisture out
 
Aircon helps reduce moisture so won't be that. More likely is a failed door membrane or other similar.
 
Yeah, get your air con on all the time for a while. That should dry it out.

You obviously need to find the cause. Could just be wet matts as the weather has been terrible recently!
 
Ah.. Perhaps its the rain. I hadn't driven it properly in a while. More short trips done lately. Will put air con on next time I use it. Thanks for all suggestions.. Will follow up and see what happens. The door windows weren't wet or frozen up inside so hopefully its nothing major. Otherwise the cars still an absolute toy to drive. :)
