Q: Problem is when I turn on my heat the inside of my car fogs up.
The heat in my car blows warm but every time I turn it on, fog blows out of the vents and the whole inside of my car fogs up and I cannot see out of my windows. I can see the fog blowing out of the vents and can smell it. Could it be the heater coil even though there is no moisture on the floorboards of my car?
My car has 225000 miles.
My car has an automatic transmission.
