I have the Premium package II. When the wipers are on intermitent (sp?) the speed up and slow down depending on my speed. I read somewhere that the Treg has a rain sensor. The reviewer said that after it stopped raining, the wipers stopped, no need to adjust the wiper controls. What have you guys experienced?

My V6 has the rain sensor. I have the base model. Turn the wiper to the setting one below "fast" ... then adjust the sensitivy by spinning the wheel accordingly.

I've tried that, but it's not working, unless I'm being too picky. It's either too fast or too slow, and once it stops raining, it keeps going at the same speed. I have to turn them off. Maybe I got spoiled by my BMW. The rain sensor on that thing was perfect!

Mine is accurate - You might not have the sensitivity at the proper level .. I have mine on the least sensitive setting and it's good for my weather conditions (So Cal)

What Mike said!!! I have the V6 and flip the wiper arm up one click and turn the wheel to the least sensative setting and it works perfectly.

Rain Sensor

The rain sensor is located behind the review mirror. A good way to test the feature is with a spray bottle of water. Set the wipers while vehicle is in a parked position. Spray a light mist at the mirror location. It will wipe a couple of times. Next, Spray heavier amount and keep spraying, you will see the sensor adjust for the amount of water by increasing speed, the more you spray the faster the wipers will work. The sensor works on a light refraction basis.
