Question Dirty Windows

Both the driver and passenger side windows seem to get really dirty on the inside. It is only the first 3rd of the windows (up to the wing mirror) which gets covered in what ever is on the read, I.e salt or dirty water.

Have anyone else had this slightly strange problem?

Try a One its Fun :-)

Greasy window problem

This seems to be a common thing, still happening to me after a month.

Have a look at this thread:

Fix for Dirty or Greasy Windows

You clean them!!!

Then a few days later you notice they're dirty again (like the rest of the car) and you clean them again.



I'm hoping it's just a case of some cavity wax leaking out onto the glass when the windows are wound down ... if so, it should go with time.
