First time in serious rain today and the wipers on my 2007 R230 started misbehaving.
No issues on low or high speed, but on auto sensing wipe they started off normally then after maybe five or six sweeps went into overdrive.
I know from experience of other Mercs that they respond to vehicle speed and rain intensity but mine seem to have a mind of their own.
Sitting in light drizzle at traffic lights they went from lazy once per second wiping to Nurburgring in a monsoon kind of wiping speed.
Turning them off then back on only sorts the problem for a while before the whole cycle starts again.
Anyone got any suggestions (apart from only driving on dry days)?
