Bad condensation on inside of windows in cold weather.
A search for condensation, water and windows etc has not really helped as you can imagine on this forum!
As I am fairly new to the Jimny, I am now experiencing my first winter and my biggest problem is condensation on and running down the windscreen and front windows. This is every day when the weather is cold and it freezes when the temperature drops too.
We have had heavy rain from time to time (It is the Lake District for a reason). But - I can't find a source. All the mats and upholstery seem dry, but something somewhere must be wet.
A few pointers to the favourite suspects would be appreciated, assuming it is not just something all Jimny owners have to live with in the winter!
Thanks
Martin
Crack the front windows open and put blower on full

Being a farmer I frequently am in and out of mine in wet or damp clothing and I tend to have a brew in there too all of which can make some quite good condensation but 10 minutes with the blower on melt and it's clear and dry again. More generally they are not prone to water ingress, certainly not in the same way that a defender does.

It seems to be very damp weather lately which does not help. I keep a kitchen roll to hand as it needs something to absorb the wet a little more than a rag.
Does it only get used on short journeys? I'm wondering if the interior is damp and does not get enough time to dry. It's amazing how much water gets in on wet shoes, and coats etc
