I have a new 2012 TDI SEL. During the rundown with the salesman prior to driving home he mentioned something about automatic wipers. I have driven in Europe and been surprised when wipers came on and so I thought "cool". However, I haven't been able to figure out IF I really have them and HOW to activate them (yes I know automatic). Can anyone shed some light on this subject. Loving the car so far, and 2 weeks later just starting to use the voice commands.
Although probably answered to the OP, to start "automatic" wipers, move the wiper control arm up ONE notch. If it's not raining, the wipers will not come on in this position. IMPORTANT, move the control arm to OFF before going into a car wash. Otherwise, your wipers may get torn off when the car wash brushes start.
Yep, did that. Lol. Trying to figure out if anyone else has had a similar issue
