Is it more or is this a common ibiza problem. In the morning after its rained u turn on your wipers and the water is moved past the drivers side windscreen and down the driver side window causing a real bad blurr across the glass? forcing you to wind down your window to clear it?

Yea i had a similar problem where my lock/unlock button stopped working and caused problems with my central locking. in the end it was just a fuse that needed replacing all ok now tho but im guessing water shorted it out as i had the window down a lot

but as for this blurring issue with water has anybody curred it or prevented it? some guy i spoke to said to try wiping the windows with liquid buffer kinda like a wax coat no idea tho

any decent car window pollish will help, but its just where it gets pitted from the window going up and down passed the seal over time,easier to see if you have tints and the scrape marks are obvious to see.
try fitting a new window!

dont think its to do with pitting is it?? just seems like the waters pouring over the front pillar onto the side window and the window is pushing it over the glass making it all go blurred, but il try window polish forst as i just have the windows tinted not long ago
