I have a newly acquired Stilo Abarth semi auto (this is my second stilo Abarth). First issue - I've noticed in the recent cold weather that I get condensation on the inside of my front windscreen. I have checked and rechecked that no windows are left open and that the sunroof is closed but it still occurs. It takes forever to clear and it's quicker to wipe the windscreen down than wait for the demister to clear it. Anyone had this problem?
Second issue - when I first start the car up and I need to reverse, it doesn't go into reverse straight away, it may take a minute or two to do so or it goes into R then slips back into N. So far it gets there eventually. Any thoughts please? My very first stilo (which I regret ever selling, hence have another one) never had these problems and in both cases, hoping it's something simple. But my first stilo never had a sunroof, if that makes any difference with the condensation problem.
 
First Issue, I have the same problem. The windscreen is not properly sealed. When it rains I get water pouring in. Better to get the windscreen resealed. Which means taken it out.
Second issue, cant help :eek:
