Side window fogging?

Anyone else have problems with the side windows fogging? In particular, it fogs directly in front of the side mirrors, so you have to open the window slightly to remove the moisture, and repeat again later.

Mine does fog up but not as bad though. I have other "issues" with my ML350, such as Transmission, etc... hehe..

Yes, they fog up from the A/C blowing cold air on the window on humid or rainy days. One solution is to open the door and block the duct with a postcard or other object and shut the door. Remove the object when you want/need air blowing on the window...

Exactly, it has been very humid here in NJ recently, and that is when it was the biggest problem. Only reason I brought it up is my E never did this, and it's annoying because it is right in front of the mirror. Hopefully MB issues a Star bulletin on this sometime in the future.
