double-6s 0 Posted October 29, 2005 Can I just ask about the heater matrix quickly...... Just checked my car again - no windows misted up at all now. Heater comes on nice and hot very quickly. Does that still sound like the matrix? Could it be something to do with having been standing for a month or so? Finally, could it be anything to do with the air-con? I used to have a ford focus (i know, kill me, i was married once!) with air-con and that used to mist up at random times ocassionally... Lol, can't believe the difference between a 1.6 focus and my vr rado!!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RW1 0 Posted October 29, 2005 Went back to the car after an hour and the windows were misted up. A leak? If the car has been stood a while, ie. on the car sales patch, it's not unusual. It needs airing a little. Heater sounds fine. Give a few days before you start to worry. Things may just dry out by Monday. . Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

double-6s 0 Posted October 30, 2005 hey all. turns out the misting up of my new motor was largely due to the air-con being set on 'recirculate'. I looked in the manual, and sure enough it described the exact symptoms i had. If its been on recirculate for a while it can mist up after the engine is stopped. Been out in her all day and have only good things to say! Saw a lovely blue 'charger' on the A27 - was it any of you???? hey r4daylee - cheers for the lovely car mate!

double-6s 0 Posted October 30, 2005 i'm smitten by the way - haven't laughed so much in ages as watching my mate trying to keep up round the twisties in my golf vr6! the difference in handling is amazing ........ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mr.ots 10 Posted October 30, 2005 There's no doubting that the c is a very fine handling car, I'm still experimenting to find out where the limits of traction are and it's a lot of fun finding out. :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
double-6s 0 Posted October 30, 2005 i began to find the limits this afternoon! can't tell you how nice it is to be able to provoke the a**e end out after driving a golf vr for a year! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mr.ots 10 Posted October 30, 2005 My problem is I have more speed humps negotiate than fast sweeping bends to try it out on. Must get out of London more. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
