Right, this is going to be a bit of a one to explain, so bear with me? You know when it has been raining overnight or even if dew has collected on the glass surfaces, and then when you get in the car if you roll the windows down and back up it generally 'wipes' the majority of the moisture off the windows? Well, mine simply doesn't - the bottom rubber barely seems to touch the glass.

Is this normal, or should I be perhaps treating the rubber with something?

yeah, ours doesnt do it very well either i.e. it clears a few inches at the back of the window but nothing useful or near the mirror... its yet another audi 'design' feature!

Simple solution is to chuck a squeegy (sp?) or drying towel in the boot and clear the glass before you set off or park in an early morning sun spot and leave for work late :D

Thanks guys :)

Glad its not just mine, if you know what I mean. I'll need to get a squeegee and leave it in the car.

Cheers :)
