My first drive since updating to 2021.4.15.6 from 2021.4.12.2 - I've noted my comment about Park Assist retrograde step in behaviour in
Parking Assist Not Working
Todays drive was a mix of overcast and sun, open roads and tree canopy, no rain, light rain, brief heavy rain. So a good test of the apparent new wipers, apart from heavy tree canopy and/or darkness (the autowipers nemesis), tunnels and fast motorway sustained downpour.
As wipers, they performed their task well - kept visibility good and didn't cause wipers to screech on a dry windscreen. I think the old wipers would have probably behaved similarly. A brief bit coming out from under a tree canopy that was dripping wet direct into full sun and dry where it continued to wipe a bit longer than necessary and another, again dripping from a tree lined road where they were a bit over enthusiastic, but as no screeching from windscreen, so fine by me.
The big test is motorways, twilight, darkness, tunnels and denser tree canopies - the latter 2 the car use to think the windscreen needed a wipe even though it was thoroughly dry. BMW and VW auto wipers use to occasionally get caught out by tunnels in a similar way.
