Screens misting up externally this morning

[Erich Stahler]

Has anyone else had the above problem? blooming weird, cant see how it can be misting on the outside of the windscreen, only a TVR is capable of such a bizarre occurrence!

[Mark.]

Does it a lot down my way, on the cars and the house. I'm sure some meteorologist type can explain.

[Greeny]

Mine does the same, can take a while to clear, then when you get going, the warmth blowing up from the engine mists it up again. A quick sweep with the wipers clears it of course, but I miss the heated screen of my previous Cerb :-(

I actually love it! Its the warm air/moisture rising through the engine vent and condensing on your cold screen as you roll forward.. just like i love watching the heat hayes when sat at a light on a cold day.. reminds me I'm in a super car!

[vroom]

Has anybody had steam coming out of the scuttle panel vents on cold start up?

It happens quite a lot to me especially when reversing the car out from a cool garage.

First time I had the fire extinguisher at the ready as i wasn't sure it was steam...

[Mags]

Only get this when its been raining or after washing the car.

Its definitely condensation on the exhaust manifold as it appears from both sides!

Yup nothing to worry about, mine lives outside and on cold days or after its been raining the manifolds heat up very quickly and any water/condensation is turned to steam and mists the windscreen, quick swoosh of the wipers when they feel like working and off we go.
