the rear window wasn't see through up so i used the rear window wipe while on my drive this morning.

couldn't get the fcuking thing off again

the whole way to work it was making that horrible noise when a wiper rubs a dry window, i was winching every 20 secs

you have to pull (or push cant remember) the right hand stalk back/forward, it doesnt move into position like most others but more like when you use the flash lights stalk,, you move it then goes back to where it comes from. It confused me at first

yes do exactly the same to turn it off, you probably did do it but as it doesnt click into position or something you probably thought that wasnt it and moved it again,i spent about 30 mins going round in circles in the old polo trying to figure it out

nice one, thats what people are telling me on the corrado place

also this

"oh...............and while we are on about wipers

you should have a variable intermittent wipe function on the front wipers


first you put it on intermittent...........then you count how many seconds you want it to sweep at...........then push up to off and push back down to intermittent............then viola you have variable intermittent function.......... "

the most cunning thing i found on mine is if you put the car in reverse and set the wing mirrors to adjust the mirrors automatically move down so you can see the wheels aginst kerbs etc, then go back to how they were when you take it out of reverse.

Also you can make them self adjust when you move the seats back and forward

Also if you press up down left right b a a start chuck norris jumps out your boot and you go back in time
