that nasty do you have a sun roof is it closed properly? my windows were iced up the other week and d1ck head, me, thought that if i undid the window then the ice would scapre itself off so i put some force into it and crunch my mechanism broke so now my window slides up and down freely. i think its just the pin on the bottom but am yet to take it apart as its off the road now and im cruising in the 1.7 td astra

it theres any moisture inside the car and if its cold enough, it'll condense on the glass and freeze.

My V reg'd Seat Ibiza suffers from this problem every now and again.

Not much you can do about it apart from keep it in a garage over night or cover it with a car cover.

Not practicle in a railway car park when you have to go to work.

put a pan of salt in the middle of the car, itll absord the moister and stop them freezing over...
