I was having a steamy window problem on my 9000 last year and not because I was having fun in the car. Lift your hatch, feel for wet trunk carpet and if its wet, check the black plastic wiring loom covers on the left and ride side between the roof and the upper edge of the hatch. These can beak and wind driven water can run down the loom and drip into the trunk. The carpet gets damp, the moisture vaporizes when the car is warm and condenses later on the cold glass.
I was tipped off to this by someone on this board when I posted that my hiking boots were in the trunk and only one was filled with water after a rainstorm. The water runs down the black plastic trim panel on the hatch until it reaches a screw hole and drips out, for me in my boot, which was right below the screw hole in the trim piece.
Leave your parcel shelf open and crack your windows for a few days in the sun and run the a/c when on the road to dry things out. Use silicone to sael the loom, but not so much that you interfere with the weatherstripping.
