Didn't you say you had a wet roof lining? That would cause it.

Yes but thr roof lining is bone dry was dry the day they did the roof and i first noticed the condensation before that happened

I will get some silica pouches today and order those things of amazon i saw on another post i dont want to run ac all the time as also reading that can be the cause as it retains moisture if used all the time

On another note wish me luck for tomorrow half marathon after 3 months off the road due to knee and back injury the heated seats in the car have been a godsend !

Condensation that stays is because there is damp in the car somewhere. It is not something any cars to unless there is a problem. I would whip the trim off near the roof lining and feel inside as close to the roof fin as possible. I have heard of them being soaking in-between the liner/roof but totally bone dry on the interior of the car liner.

Good luck with the run Jeni, take it easy if you've been off that long, no prizes for aggravating an old injury!
