Quick query, car is in the garage, fully water proof, door is wood so a little drafty, noticed the car had condensation on the front windscreen today, would this cause an issue car is layed up for winter but was wet last week when I put it back.

A garage can be the worst place to store a car,condensation will probably be caused by the milder temps (in the south it is +9c at 2300!!).Put a car away wet and it'll stay wet as there is no drying air available. I find a carport ideal for storing my convertible as it can air dry without getting wet again.

If you look underneath you will probably find condensation on all the cold metal parts, cannot be good especially if any salt still lurking.

Thx, so I guess open it up or move it out dry, or put a heater/ dehumidifier in the garage
