Rain Sensing Closure of Windows?

[mds1256]

hello

can any one with the rain sensor fitted let me know if you have rain sensing closure of windows e.g. when the sensor detects rain and the windows have been left open does yours close, i have tested mine with a glass of water over the sensor but doesnt do anything?

Sounds like a really bad idea - what would happen if somebody left a dog in their car with the windows open on a really hot day and then it started to rain

I always wondered if that's possible, seeing that many people complain about open windows + rainy day = soaking interior

Looks like an undocumented feature on the MKV golf...

Guess it could be the same for the Leon.

sorted, got mine working, looks like they had only enabled half of it e.g. the MFD menu part, so just followed step one and enabled it.

not to everyones taste but i like this feature

cheers
