Pan Roof Condensation.

Morning all - I think I know the answer but Sad I noticed yesterday after running the Sport via the InControl App that the pan roof was covered in condensation. It was that bad it dripped onto my lap whilst turning Big Cry Previously my other Sports had the FBH pre heat which never caused this issue ( or I didn't notice it ). So this morning I didn't bother with the app & just drove as normal but I did notice after 15 mins the pan roof had started to gather condensation Rolling Eyes
Is this normal ? what do we do to stop - restrict this issue ?

I have no problem in my Disco 5 with the pano roofs, but my wifes 10 year old Volvo V50 has that problem and I put it down to he high humidity in her car.

By that I mean it is damp inside. Thumbs Up 2023 P440e SE Dynamic on order -cancelled

You leave the air conditioning on all year round, yes? If not then that’s the first thing I’d do. It dries the air which would lower humidity in the cabin. L405 P400e Autobiography (MY2020)... Silicon Silver / Espresso
RRS TDV6 HSE Lux (MY2011)... Nara Bronze / Arabica - now gone!

I had the very same thing as PEACHY had this morning, first really cold morning so started the car via the app to thaw it.

I also noticed a lot of condensation on the inside of the glass roof when it dripped on me Laughing

Does anyone do anything with this? Is is just as simple as running the air=con all of the time?

Thanks 2017 Range Rover Sport Autobiography

It's climate control. It's designed to be run constantly. It's better for the system and the interior conditions if it's run constantly. You just set the temperature you desire and leave it. Why the need to turn it off anyway? 2012 SDV6 - it's missing a couple of cylinders
2008 TDV8 - it was a labour of love and is much missed
