Oily film on windows

Post by DeeJaye1970 »

I have a '66 Type I, and I keep finding an oily film on the inside of the windows. It builds up about once a week and drive her about that often. The windows are always closed unless we're driving. Any ideas?

Are the heater/defroster vents open (Red and White handles "up")?
If so: Does your engine leak oil onto the heat exchangers?
If you have no heat exchangers: Are the entry ports to the heater channels properly covered up?
Have you been eating a diet rich in garlic and olive oil? (Sorry about that...Running out of ideas).
