Front and Rear windshield fogs from the inside when car is off
Ive noticed that my c32 has been fogging up on both front and rear windshield, on the inside of the window, not the outside, but none on the side windows. There is a leak in the trunk, driver side, by the rear fuse box. What can i do to fix this? replace the trunk weather strip? and if the front windshield is fogging up, why isnt the side windows fogging up? this makes me think that there is a leak in the front windshield as well? but i dont see any water or anything getting wet in the front, or atleast that i know off? maybe reseal both windshields? and winter is coming so i would like to get this fixed asap. help me out guys.
thanks

weather has been ok, as fall is here, mornings would be 55's, noon, would get to around 65, at night it will go to mid 40s. but i live in a town house developement and every other car is fog free. i was like "wtf". i would say it feels kinda humid when i get in, nothings wet or anything except a leak in the trunk. and i smell the moisture i guess mixing with the interior and that creates a unique smell that i cant describe. the weather says it will be in the 70s until wednesday so hopefully i can get it fixed by then.

make sure that the plastic moldings on each side of the trunk moldings are cleared of debris, leaves and crap....you will notice a 1/4 inch gap where the molding meets the center molding. if this area is clogged the water ends up in ur trunk and could potentialy mess up you rer sam.
Good Luck!!!
p.s.
there's a thread somewhere about a flood in the trunk just use the search.

I'm gonna take that plastic trim off this weekend and clean it all out and maybe add some silicone to the area where it will be covered by the plastic trim. Very frustrating, but i know with patience, this car is awesome, so we'll see what happens.

I think I also get a few drops of water in my trunk as well, but I don't think it's enough to cause it? I think you might need to look for another larger area
