Auto-Wiper Sensitivity

Hi,

DOes anyone know if the auto-wiper and lights sensitivity can be adjusted ?
Mine are way too sensitive and go into a fast wipe at the earliest spot of rain.
I have a 1 series as well and this has user adjustment and is perfect !

Even if this is a dealer thing..

Thanks

Courtesy of mini manual.

Adjusting rain sensor sensitivity

1. Switch on the ignition
2. Briefly press the button in the turn indicator lever repeatedly until 'SET/INFO' appears
3. Keep the button pressed until the display changes
4. Briefly press the button repeatedly until the symbol and 'SET' appear
5. Keep the button pressed until the display changes
6. Press the button to select the desired sensitivity
7. Wait until the display switches. The settings are stored.

I hope this helps/works for your wee beastie.
