    a couple of mk6 astra questions

    iv just got a couple of questions regarding my mk6 astra (without sounding as nooby as a noob! who says noob anymore! tfft!)

    on two occassions i have come out to my car (once over night) and my windows are both down, why? i did close them before leaving the car im not that daft!

    and also, my cars always full of condensation after being left for a good few hours, where as my sisters crappy old mk4 astra is crystal clear. is it somthing to do with the insulation on the door cills?

    any feedback would be highly appreciated!

    Condensation is because it is damp inside of the car, As for windows you must have something wrong with the connection between the key and the car. Can you hold the button either on or off on your key to bring the windows up?

    Dito.

    My old BMW used to do a similar thing.....had no idea what it was....turned out I was sitting on my keys..lol.

    Take it back to Vauxhall...for both issues.

    I was gunna suggest sitting on keys, Water could be getting in through boot or anywhere and once the damp patch is there it will condensate on the windows mate. Take it back and tell them.

    You could just pat your carpets and boot carpet just to check if you wanted too? Just to see if there is any wetness.
