Hi guys,

A trivial but annoying problem. When first turning on the ignition with the wiper selector in auto the wipers cycle once whether the screen is dry or wet. With the second key this does not happen.
Apart from trying to remember to turn off the wipers before start is there a quick fix?

Many thanks,

Lifts a gift

I leave my lights permanently in Auto but the wipers only go there when there's a drop of rain so I don't have the issue.

Two Macans over 4 years and using 4 keys and never had that happen. I always leave the wipers on the auto setting.

Suggest you get your OPC to re-programme that one key.

Try switching the wipers to off, save settings to the key. If that makes no difference, set the wipers to auto then save to key.
