Door lock sensors when washing…

Not sure why I haven't asked this months ago, but how do you prevent the sensors on the door handles and on the trunk boot to stop locking/unlocking and opening the trunk? It's ridiculous that my mirrors keep folding/unfolding and trunk opens while washing the car.

Is there a mode to put the car in to disable the sensors temporarily?

It's because you have your key close to the car, so it thinks the water is you trying to get in/out lol
I usually just put my key on a table in my garage when I'm washing my car and I don't get that problem, or if you don't have somewhere to put it just toss the key inside the car, it won't lock itself

This is a very annoying feature when washing, I do agree. What I try to remember to do is to leave the key in the car door, and unlock all doors. Prevents that God awful beeping every time you spray the door handles

Yea, I change out the banner for each supercar brand I own at the time. I previously had an R8 V10 Plus and had the Audi banner up, lol.
