    Hi
    At a lost what I should do.
    Taken my car to my local mechanic in regards to condensation in my car. It so bad that when I open the boot water drips out. Done the basics changed the cabin filter and clear the drainage points. My mechanic said that the air con was over charged so he release some gas to get it back to normal.
    It work for a day and now it's not working. Would I be right to think it it the condenser unit or is there a well know fault on the car that let's moisture in. As I am really concern at the amount of water I am collect daily in the boot. To also add I have purchase 3 of those moisture bags and they haven't helped one bit. Photos attached is only after 20 minute journey.

    Any help would be greatful

    Just an update just in case anyone in the future reads this and has the same problem.
    Had numerous error codes in regards to the air intake:
    Motor for front air distribution, motor for fresh air/ recirculate air flap - open circuit, Motor for front air distribution flap - actuator stuck

    Going to see what part I need and replace and update further

    If water is in the boot the usual cause is the cabin air exhaust vents behind the rear bumper, these are a loose fit and allow water in.

    No this literally how much moisture is in the car. The back window normally fogs up first. To the point the drips down into any place where the water can be stored
    Going to drive the car for another week to narrow down which sensor or part I need to replace and see it makes a difference. But thank you for your reply

    Further update (Solved)
    Found out the part number that was at fault 5q0 907 511A
    This enables the flap behind the glove box to open and close.
    Also if you have a similar problem like mine you will notice the front air vents (the two directly infront of the gear stick) and footwell are vents blow no air.

    Hope this helps anyone in the future
