addìct

All of last winter when the temp. dipped below 20deg, or so the inside of my front and rear windshield would freeze.

So far, I've experienced that once this winter and want to know if there is any way to prevent it? Is there a chemical than can be applied to to window, ideas?

(1) is the easiest, just use your air conditioner for a bit (or the front demister). It's telling you there's not enough air flow (or maybe you're getting too excited when you drive).

i just run in NON econ mode all winter. i use AC more in the winter than in the summer.

i also try to empty my winter mats when i get to my destination if there is water in them.

also, snowboards and boots go in the thule box!

at those temps, so you can't use the HVAC to dehumidify the cabin. When it's really bad, I'll roll the windows down, until the heat is available, then direct the heat to the glass to warm it up. That will cut down on the condensation a bit. Also, shake your boots/shoes off before entering the car. The less moisture you bring into the cabin, the less condensation you'll have to deal with.

i'm pretty certain it's above the -11*C we're at here right now.

It's been posted, but I can't recall. The numbers 40F and 23F stick out in my mind, however I think that's the range where you see Mr. Snowflake on your dash.

my friend with an A4 said his car never frosts/fogs like mine does. but i'm thinking it's just this time of year when the car still gets warm in the sun and then freezes at night. really annoying to sit with cold defroster blasting for 5 mins.

...makes me call people i shouldn't.
