Hi there!I have something strange in my auto light-rain sensor. There is like a patch which is very reflective. Can you have a look at the attached picture and tell me what you think please?
Is it a defect? is it just cosmetic? sometimes the lights do turn on during bright sunlight but maybe its just a software issue...

thanks

Steve

Hi Spsaila Just checked mine it has two small dots and one circle 8mm does not have the the rest take it back to dealers let them have a look

Hi Jonjohn,

Yes I thought so, I was just wondering whether its just mine that has this "characteristic"
I d like to confirm before approaching the dealer...

Thanks

Yes just been and checked mine it looks like you have an air bubble trapped spsaila!

I guess its just cosmetic though, both sensors work fine.... though there s been a couple of cases where the lights turned on on their own

Light sensor great/rain sensor ok but could be better! Edited by: Tyrfelin

Tyrfelin!...and you were boasting that it was always raining in Wales keeping your car clean!!

You need to get that fixed or changed for a sun sensor!!

I'm enjoying the sun here since the beginning of the year with temperatures of around 8°C -10°C...I'm beginning to like my rugged, dusty looking Captur!!

Told you that dirt was ok! Trouble with Welsh rain is that it's not always heavy!!!!

 

[Ythsie]

Sounds a bit like my old homeland! Plenty of drizzle!!
Has the weather died down a bit with yourselves? The flooding looked serious! Never seen the like in the 54 years I lived in the UK!
We're usually in freezing conditions with heavy snowfalls, but nothing so far this year!

Who said it always rains in Wales.........we starting to get webbed feet the way it's been going lately..

 

[Ythsie]

Nice one!! Spoke too early!!!! Snowfalls in the north heading south to where I am....anticipated heavy snow by Friday!! Oh well it will be a white Captur!!

 

[Tyrfelin]

Trouble is that our webbed feet get stuck in the pedals!!! Ha ha

 

[Tyrfelin]

Write a review of the Captur in snow Ythsie - thanks!!!
