I think mine clears pretty quickly considering the huge glass area it is working on. FRom cold, blowing cold air on to glass is never going to clear it quickly, from warm it only takes a few seconds.

Are you running the air con at the same time ?? It will clear faster with air con ON as the air will be drier, once the system is on song .. again .. a warm start rather than a cold one.

As long as the air temp. sensed by the a/c is above +4ºC.

Call me mental if you will, but I've just wandered back to the car to have a look at the 'vents' again and both are solid plastic that don't budge at all and there's no rubber portion that might flap open.

They are about 10cm by 8cm by about 3-4cm thick and about 5cm apart, bolted to the outer metal behind the compartment flap.

I took a picture which I'll try to upload this evening.

Is there some kind of motor which does something to them? I jiggled them hard to see if there was any movement and there was nothing. They just look like they are fixed to the car.

Its these pair which are the outlet vents

As the piccies above .. and if you blow on the inside of them you'll see all the little flaps move

By comparison with pretty much any other car, my Elite Omega is and always been utterly crap at clearing the windscreen.

With the blower on full, set at High with a warm engine, the clear part creeps very slowly up the screen?

Was this model designed with bad airflow or is there a problem with my car?

I have reset the internal bits countless times and it makes no difference.

Thanks for any help.

Does the estate have these, and if so where?

On the estate they are under the floor (spare wheel cover) in the rear cross panel... They exit behind the bumper
