Not to sound like a whiner but my '14 Passat SEL wiper operations aren't as useful compared to my '06 Jetta Diesel Edition. Is anyone aware of VCDS programming options? What I lack (and miss):
  • Wash feature made two swipes and then an additional swipe about 5 seconds later.
  • When coming to a stop wiper 'on' reduced to intermittent.
  • Momentary wipe went to high speed on second wipe and beyond when held down.
Petty complaints yes yet sorely missed when spending three hours a day in the car especially with salt and slush flying. I'm better with wrenches than electronics so would appreciate any programmer input. Thanks, John

... None :S
Your 06 had a smart wiper motor, the NMS does not... so I don't know if any of this is easily changed.

You should be able to enable the tear drop (1 wipe after a few seconds when washing the windshield) wipe with vag com, I think I saw it there.

I'm pretty sure our 2012 Passat has this feature, so it may well be possible to enable it.

One additional "lost" feature discovered this morning: when coming to a stop wiper 'intermittent' reduced to off.
