It seems to wait until I can't see anything before wiping the screen. When at higher speeds its works better. Is there any other war of adjusting the variation / dealer programming etc?

I'm driving the F11, no issues with my auto wipers, as efficient as previous BMW cars. I'm up in Lochaber, highland region, so auto wipers get a pretty good testing in our climate, in every kind of rain going.
I had a VW which wasn't right, for sensitivity. Turned out it was the sensor, once changed was fine.
One thing I do notice, we do need to keep the screens clean, the rain does need to bead properly for best sensitivity.
