Wish I could find a solution other than the expensive repair :-(

Very annoying since running around with wipers on all the time.

Using google to search the site is much better than the built in search engine…..
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Having a problem with my Boxster and looking for some guidance. Foam starting coming out of the air vents, stopped and now my windshield gets exterior condensation. Very annoying since running around with wipers on all the time. Seems cold air is leading from the defrost, hitting the windshield and causing the fog. I live in Florida where it�s hot and humid so turning down my AC or having it come out of the footwell is not an option.
I�ve looked at all the DIY videos on YouTube talking about the foam problem, but they don�t address my particular problem. Many thanks in advance for any help.
Your foam barrier has disintegrated on the A/c door so air is going to constantly flow carrying cold moisture to the warm windshield creating condensation
A mechanic that works at the local Porsche dealership told me it's an issue with some flap that keeps the cold air from not going out the defrost that those YouTube videos do not address. Told me some foam falls off the flap and then the problem starts, which is consistent with my case. He also told me it's an expensive repair that requires the removal of the whole dash. Wish I could find a solution other than the expensive repair :-(
Here’s all the links I have aggregated. Using google to search the site is much better than the built in search engine….. I did this repair through the frunk this past weekend. Took me about 3 hrs being extremely careful and also figuring out putting it back together. I did replace the heater core while I was there and foiled the flaps. Plenty of info below to get this done. If you take it to a dealer they will want to pull the dash and hvac making this very expensive. Hope this helps - scrh1
