Anyone else find reversing a Taycan in the dark almost impossible

Yep I'll give it a go but never noticed any water coming out onto the lens and I use the rear wash wipe all the time in this weather. Perhaps it's broken or blocked??!

yep it could be blocked or broken or misplaced. I read someone else in this forum having same issue. btw, is useless even when it work as it doesn't have high pressure and also remaining waterdrops make things worst.

About as good as the camera then. I can't believe that Tesla Porsche got this so badly wrong. I mean I expect this sort of thing on a Tesla eg awful wipers and headlights but on a Porsche?!

It only gives a jet of water if you use the rear wash/wipe whilst in reverse.
Mine works better than it looks like it should...

Reversing in the dark is hit or miss, sometimes literally… we have a gated driveway at the end of a narrow road and if I want to drive out forward I need to reverse in, so do so daily at the moment round a slightly complex curve and past the gateposts. A few months ago I was focusing so hard on the mirrors and my usual angle of attack I hadn’t realised my wife had moved her car into my usual spot and reversed right onto the bloody towbar… doh..!

Top tip. Will give it a bash. A button on the screen like the Coupe would be more obvious.

Cross Turismo doesn't have a rear camera wash.

Mine does.

I spray/treat mine with rain-x periodically. The washer works most of the time, though sometimes I have to hold it a bit longer or do couple of squirts.

Yeah we got to the bottom of that.
It's not obvious like it is on the Coupe where the "button" for the rear camera wash is right there on the camera screen.
