If the windows inside the cabin tend to mist up easily and there is a loss of coolant in the radiator reservoir, it means that the cabin heater radiator has a leak; replacing this component, which is quite inexpensive (around £20.00), requires the complete removal of the entire dashboard to access the air duct where the radiator is housed.

The first step is to drain the coolant and disconnect the hoses that connect the cooling system to the cabin radiator; after that, start removing the steering wheel, the steering column, and then the entire dashboard.
