Zusammenfassung:	A condensation monitoring system for a vehicle comprises a humidity estimation module and a condensation detection module. The humidity estimation module estimates a humidity in one of an air intake system and an exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) system associated with an engine of the vehicle. The condensation detection module generates a condensation signal indicating that condensation is present in the one of the air intake system and the EGR system when the humidity is greater than a predetermined humidity.
