one thing i learned about the watch... if the car is 'asleep' it might not open the door at first, but if i open or restart the app on the watch it will wake up the car then it works.

Today it rained in the Bay Area, and it looks like the last update actually mostly fixed the Auto wiper feature 👍. Not perfect, but works much better



When the rain was light, the wipers ran on the slow setting and switched to higher speeds when the rain got heavy. Again it wasn't perfect, but at least I didn't have to turn them off due to them running when the windshield was dry

I think there's been 2 updates over the years that have "mostly" fixed the auto wipers in our Y. Only to have the next update break them again. Good luck!

Crickey, and I complain about $92. Starting Jan1 of this year there is now a $200 extra fee for EVs so I renewed for 2 years in August 2024. August 2026 I'll be paying $292.
