Leave the roof down....just kidding. Although, maybe you should try lowering one window a bit to "normalize" the inside/outside temps. Sounds like a dew point issue.

Usual cause of fogging windows (apart from the suggestions already put forward) is when the A/C evaporator drain is blocked.

You don't ident vehicle type...someone suggested SLK?...

S Class are extremely prone to the A/C plenum (air inlet) drain being blocked but it is usually the evaporator chamber drain.

Does the fog clear with the A/C running? with and without recirc selected?

I have a 2003 SLK-230

Whenever I start it up, the AC blows a HOT, incredibly HUMID blast for about 4 minutes.
It's so humid, it fogs up all the windows until the AC cools down and starts to defrost things.
(Oh, I'm in San Diego and it's "summer")

I suspect that the evaporator drain is clogged.

How can I get to it?
Does anyone know where I can access it?
From the inside? From the outside?
