I have a question regarding the rain sensing wipers on my MS3. First of all, I made the mistake of not reading the manual prior to applying Rain-X on each window the first day I bought it. The manual specifically says not to apply it on the front windshield as it will basically make it difficult for the sensor to gauge the appropriate amount of rain, since the rain basically flies right off the windshield and in the process right over the sensor.
Anyways, I've got it in the lowest sensitivity and still it goes off too often for me. The manual states that the rain sensor is the same as the auto headlights sensor, and auto headlight sensitivity can be adjusted at the dealer. So, does anyone know if you can have the rain sensor sensitivity adjusted as well? I would love to have that done immediately, because the lowest sensitivity isn't low enough. Sometimes, I turn it off and flip the "Mist" single swipe whenever I feel necessary (it gets kinda old).
I'm going to ask the dealer anyhow but figured I'd rather see if anyone has ever tapped into the settings through the ECU and found any parameters to adjust on the rain sensing?
