Hi all

I am still waiting for my own car to arrive (end month) but am driving a hire car Skoda at the moment and I have noticed a strange phenomenon that when the wipers are set to auto and a police car with his blue strobes on passes even if it is not raining the wipers will start up while the police car is near, anybody any ideas why?

John :confused:

The rain sensor (I think) measures reflections from rain on the sensor, so I would assume that it's being confused by the light from the strobes into thinking that there's water on the sensor.

Or it's got a built-in "guilty" sensor, and it's trying to hide your identity!
