I, too, find that the sensitivity of the auto wipers is not good. I took the car in for this issue and they said they updated the software to fix this, but it is not any better. Many times when it is raining I have to put the wipers on manual in order for them to properly clear the windshield.

Does anyone know if this is really a software issue? Does V15 fix it?

Thanks

Has anyone else had this problem? Rain sensor was working fine and then suddenly quit. Wipers are working fine otherwise.

Don't worry VTbound. It might be a computer glitch. I got the same problem about a moth ago. Brought my car to a diller. They just re-set computer and rain sensor works again.

Just to update:
Brought car in for service they"Initialized rain sensor" and it works again.
Is there a "ctrl, alt, del for non-nav cars? does anyone know a dealer well enough to find this out for us in the future?

That's correct - if there is one, it's well hidden, since nobody has found it yet...
