I know this has been covered before but I can't get my head around this!
I have 2 Pingi moisture grabbing bags and one of those trays with the crystals in the top. The Pingis do a job and grab some of the moisture, the tray doesn't work at all, the crystals just form a lump and no fluid drops to the lower section. Maybe the Pingis are working too well?
BUT....the inside of the rear screen is always wall to wall in heavy condensation. It doesn't matter which way it's facing, whether it's wet or dry.
The car interior and boot are bone dry.
Any suggestions?
Condensation on rear screen?

Re: Condensation on rear screen?
I've got the same problem at the moment, think it may be the seal between the bottom of the hood and bodywork needs resealing. Had a similar problem a couple of years ago and found one side was leaking into the hood recess, sealed it up with silicon and all was OK but maybe it needs re-sealing again. I found that the carpet in the recess may seem dry to the touch from the outside but if you pull it back there could be water underneath, so might be worth investigating this.

Quick update. I moved the car at a 45 degree angle to its former position, effectively side on to the sun - although we've had none - and the situation has improved considerably. That and a little more effort clearing the condensation.
Pure chance or pure genius, you decide?

The repositioning probably mitigated the entrance of water into the vehicle. Make an effort to find the leak into the car (eg looking in the boot while spraying water on the rear roof seal).
I'll bet you have pool of water in the battery area or in the corners behind the rear wheels.
