The auto wipers are so bad on mine that I've given up using them completely. I disabled auto wipers in MMI which defaults it to traditional intermittent (adjustable) with one click up. Auto wipers work great on both my BMWs.

I have no issues with the auto-wipers, but not a fan of the extra detent up to engage them. Just like the OP, I tend to manually blip the lever down for a quick cleaning.

Just a FYI, newer BMW uses the same detent up stalk (I hate this too) instead of the button (vastly superior) to engage.
