Rear wiper...

Could anyone else who has gone from a D3 to a D4 tell me if they noticed their rear wiper travels much more slowly on the 4? Mine takes over 5 seconds to do a full sweep.

....and btw,took the trusty old girl out today and it was a pleasure to use the rear wipe compared to the painful effort of the D4 rear wiper motor Thumbs Up

Bow down

TFFT! I was dreading going in with that one!

I actually prefer the twist to activate on the 4. I was forever leaving the rear wiper wiping a dry screen after I had used the rear wash function. You had to switch the rear wiper 'on' to wash on the 3, and unless you consciously switched it off......

Just wait til you find out you can't give a single 'thank you' flash on the indicators.
Or you can't spray a minimum quantity of scoosh on your windscreen.

Huh? Twist to activate the rear. My MY10 it's pull on and pull again to wash on the rear. Has it changed on later models or is there yet another feature I've missed???
