Hi Peeps

I have a 2005 525i SE tourer here in the UK and am asking any one on here if they know if it is possible too switch the Rear Wiper on continuosly rather than intermittent, I have looked in the manual but cant see anything relating too this


Cheers
Pharoah

No, it's interval only I am afraid. Only when you go reverse it will switch to continuos swipe.

I'm pretty sure all the hatbacks/Estates I've ever had have only ever been intermitent. I can;'t think of one that's ever matched the front wipers.

The closest you can do is to turn on the wiper and set the interval time to the minimum. That way it will wipe every 2 to 3 seconds or so.

The process to set the interval time is explained in the manual. I don't have my E61 anymore or I would post the instructions for you.
