PsYcHe and Richie, I visit good friends in Blantyre a few times a year, and have often played golf at East Kilbrise Golf Club, I'll be sure to watch out for you both on the road next time I'm up that way, which is possibly between Christmas and New Year.....+++

And by coincidence I had the problem with the air con drainage being blocked a few years ago and it was my mate from up there who discovered how bad it was when I threw it round a roundabout and soaked his shoes........:ROFL:

I've moved the meet discussion from here to a seperate thread as we were veering very far away from the original item

Yup, my mechanic cleared all drains, the ones under the arch were clogged solid and he removed all the ecu electric stuff under the windscreen and sealed a small hole that had a rubber grommit in it. He said the grommit was the problem it wasn't water tight. It looked like someone had tried to seal it brfore my ownership. He also removed all my interior and dried it out as he was concerned with some electric stuff under the floor staying damp. So it's been totally dry in the cab and no more steamy windows! I still check every now and then, its called paranioa! :ROFL:

Glad you got it sorted, so it was Botang's hole that was the source.
