I'm very impressed with the auto wiper function and the ability to adjust its sensitivity is great.
Unlike the auro wiper function on my Scenic, which is terrible.

I didn't realize how much I use and love my Volvo's auto-wipers until I drove across the USA last year in a Nissan that didn't have them

Bumping this thread as I am having issues after windscreen replacement with Autoglass on an S90.

They come on without the rain sensor being selected and in full sun.

I needed my windscreen replaced twice as Autoglass cocked it up first time and I had this issue the first time around, apparently the clips were loose.

Will have 5o contact them again. Very frustrating

No , not calibration as such but they do need a new Volvo gel sticky pad when refitted , I guess the windscreen company dont use one ...

All volvo dealers have in house windscreen fitting services and the correct bonding agents , primer etc ..

Thanks, I awaiting a call back from Autoglass warranty team.

My experience with Autoglass has been awful since the start. Incompetant.

I will tell them about needing this and if it comes to it then it can go Volvo to be fixed and they can pay for it.

The city safety camera will require calibrating too, they should know about that as they have been around for over 10 years now .
