02 XJ8 rain-sensor wipers seem less sensitive
I have owned my 02 XJ8 VP for about 5 years now and I've noticed (or at least I imagine that I have noticed) that while the rain sensor works, it seems to be a little more erratic in its operation. Sometimes it waits slightly longer than it should to make the next swip. Purely by accident recently, I discovered that, when in the rainsensor mode, I can activate the wipers once by sweeping my hand between the rear view mirror and the windshield without touching anything. It seems to work every time. Not an elegant solution, I know, but it's kinda fun to feel you are beating the system. If you have this 'problem', give it a try!
