Hi all it's been a while since I was here.
Something's just bugging me about my MX5. Every time I drive my car with heating on then get out of the car everything switched off... in few minutes time windows starts to mist from inside as in heavy mist in which it dont usually happen before. Not sure if the air filter is blocked or there's something wrong with electrical?

Tried searching about cleaning the vents for MX5 but didnt found any. Please help!

Lift your carpets by the footwell see if there wet. Sounds like theres water somewhere. Also check behind rear seats and parcel shelf, water will be hear if roof/rain rail is leaking.

Thanks very much guys! I know this is the best website to ask any probs about MX5's. Will try them out tomorrow and see if there's pool of water or leaks. I know there was before but sent it to the garage and fix a leak on the passenger side just beside the glove box compartment.
