That may be the cause as from looking on this site evaporators rarely fail. Really need to know how to access it. Suppose that failing would cause a leak into the cabin.

Just heard from the garage. Apparently it's the evaporator that's leaking. They reckon anyway.

Thanks hopefully someone will be along soon who has had this problem before. Of course it doesn't help when I am looking to drive the car to Slovakia next weekend where the temperature is over 30c at times and need aircon.

Very funny. Of course it should read aircon but at least you got a first reply in.

Yep also tried that. But when the dampness gets in it is hard to move. Best to try and stop it before it starts. Hence anyone got a bung for sale.

Yes and also yes. Cleaned glass also with vinegar. So wet you could soak up the water with about 5 napkins on the front window alone. The back one so wet it dripped into the boot. Must admit very bad weather on the journey home, at times wipers on full. Have tried everything which leads me to the conclusion that to much dampness finding its way into the recess where the filter sits and getting into the cabin. Hence the need for the rubber bung. Have owned this car for nearly 10 years and it can be a big problem. So anyone got one for sale.

Well it is misting up. Tried everything and on the way back from Scotland the other day and it was misting up really badly, raining outside thought that to much condensation been dragged in from the outside and forcing it's way thru the vents. Hence my plan to restore the rubber drainage plug.

Not really sure what it is called but it is the rubber drainage plug that sits below the cabin filter. Mine is missing and thinking with one in it may help with the misting up problem. Car is a 2.6 Estate 2001. Pretty sure a saloon one will fit also.

On the multicoloured outside lights bought yesterday after about 1 hour working fine they just died. Found out it is the plug at fault,sealed unit and no way to fix it. Went back to the shop with just the plug but no more in stock. Now we have no outside lights and one disappointed daughter.
