just had a weekend away,and constantly noticed that the main front window(one large window) has condensation inside, two large areas,which did decrease/increase at various times of the day. spoke to dealer/agent today as caravan is only 6mths old they say this normal, i do not believe this is correct having had my previous caravan for 4yrs with no window probs,and same make of windows,any ideas on this, is it a case of removing the corner bungs letting this dry and refitting them?

Yep thats the usual way of curing it and then making sure that all the bungs are replaced so no more moisture can get back in, if its appearing and then going I'd guess that there is a 'leak' somewhere. (bung missing etc) it could be the actual sela between the inner and outer thats failed, at 6 months old it should be under warranty though so ask for it to be checked or changed.

Definitely not normal - common maybe but not normal. Our van, 2005, doesn't suffer form this ( touches head in absence of wood). If you do remove the bung to cure then use a hair dryer to dry it out thoroughly before replacing. I would think this IS a warranty issue.
