When the rear wash wipe is activated on the (right hand) wiper stalk.
On my wife’s Gen 3 the camera wash only seems to activate when in reverse gear
Yes you are right.
I've never detected its presence in my Gen 2. Usually keep a tissue handy for that reason!

Yes indeed, tried it, saw it even before your post! What else have I missed? Passenger ejector seat? RPG for Sunday drivers?

The big benefit of this Forum is the really useful tips & advice about such things.

Not long after I had my first Macan read a tip about cleaning the roof. Some suggested getting a freestanding step to reach all of it, but the one I really liked and still use today is this one.....

"Open the 4 doors and walk into those spaces to be able to more easily reach to clean the middle of the roof" Works for me! :o

This works for me when cleaning the car.

Allows my Mrs to reach the middle of the roof of our Manan.
