I checked VCDS and the sensor is set to normal, rather than early but they're still turning on when it's still quite bright outside.

Should I be checking the sensor, the little disc, or the adhesive to the screen? Any idea where I should start?
Hi Tony, what have you had done to the car recently? Anything relevant to the issue?

I just had my windscreen replaced (by cowboys) and rectified by a colleague in the end. I had issues with the lights, gel pack, wipers etc.

How are your auto wipers? I ask cos they sense using the same sensor/gel pack.
