I have this problem that there is always some mist on my side windows. Especially when its raining. Why is this happening? Any solution?

I have the same problem. It's something to do with the material either coated onto the windows or in the window itself.
Still it makes dogging easier :grin: :grin: :grin:

Carry a rag around with you - like my father used to have to do with his 1976 Datsun :grin: :grin: :grin: :grin: :grin:

I do get some misting at the bottom of the windscreen when driving in heavy rain. For misting on the side windows, try directing the side air vents directly on to the glass.

I thought the whole point of dogging is voyeurism... so people can see you. Steamed windows would therefore make it harder.. of course, not that I'd know anything about this :lipsrsealed:

Nah, I'd need to get a Phateon to savour the (dubious) delights of that particular pastime.. its much bigger and more comfortable. :grin: :grin: :grin: :grin: :grin:
Plus you can adjust the suspension on a Phateon and make it even more comfortable :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

Lol.. sorry but I completely forgot about the original purpose of this thread :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:
I just put my CC on full blast and attack it that way. It is a pain though and I can't remember having this problem with any other model of car - well any other Mk of Golf, because apart from a couple of cars all my other 20 cars have been Golfs.
-
what's causing it? anyone know?
i usuall tell people to stop breathing in the car, myself included, turn a/c on and/or open windows
-
what's causing it? anyone know?
Probably water ingress

Ummm hang on Maxamus.. what about the women? Unless of course, you're into a different kind of dogging... :shocked: :huh: :lipsrsealed: :grin: :grin: But hey, thats ok. We welcome everyone to this forum regardless of race, religion, colour or SEXUAL ORIENTATION. :evil: :evil: :laugh: Your secret is safe with me :wink:
Sorry Fatandre but I couldn't resist :embarassed:

Sorry you're getting stupid answers rather than real help here Andre.
Do you find that this happens more in built up areas and slow traffic? I wonder if the Golf has an auto pollution sensor that switches the ventilaion to recirculation (as it does when reversing and using the washer jets). This could be the problem and may be able to be overridden using Vagcom.
If all else fails with climate control, vent direction and blower speed then you could try an anti fogging solution similar to those used on bathroom mirrors.
-
Try changing your pollen filter, on my MK4 when I changed this it almost never mists up now.

Lighten up... its just a bit of fun and banter which is why this forum is so good. If you take these kinds of things too seriously then you need to go to Club GTI. On a more serious note though, we have tried to help, but I reckon this is probably a design flaw in the Mk5 Golf as every GTI/R32 I have had has the same problem... a bit like the water that wets your seat when you open the door after its been raining. :sad: The only solution I have is to turn on the aircon full blast.
