SNOW

[mtk_rob]

It doesn't snow much where I live, but whenever I open any door in the snow, a comical amount of snow falls into the car. And as it's cold outside, the snow remains in the car when parked. And when it warms up, creates a lot of condensation. Any solutions?

Related, not the same, I am still annoyed about snow in my car --

I got a chip in my windshield on the highway that I would have fixed, but was waiting for warmer weather. That turned into a $1600 replacement after a big freeze/thaw

I mean...brushes are a thing ya know


brush off the snow before opening the door

and if snow does get in, brush it back out.

to dry out what gets tracked in
run a/c on with max heat and fresh air setting...no recirc

Clear your car before opening the door.

I haven't had a vehicle where this wasn't a problem since about 1995 lol

And that one had a drip rail that probably rusted out a few years later.

You need better insurance. I have a $100 deductible that includes windshields.

True. For whatever reason my insurance buyer hadn't clicked the box for the windshield coverage. Remedied.

This might help… a little.

Previously, when I arrived at my destination in my beautiful black and snow-covered 5th gen, I would open a door just a few inches, then slam it shut. It created a mini avalanche outside my driver window. If you do that before you open the door to get out, less snow will tumble inside.

Now that was on my 5th gen. Can’t guarantee that will work on a 6th gen because mine has not seen snow and will NEVER see snow if I can avoid it!
