My wife has a new X3 with a lot more tech than my '09 128i. This wipers issue has had us both stumped for a few days. Despite this very helpful thread, I couldn't get the wipers to stop in the upright position as shown in the photos. I finally stopped by the dealer today and got the tips I needed. Here is what worked for me:
1. Get in car and shut the door.
2. Do not touch the brake pedal.
3. Press and release the start button once. This "wakes up" the car but does not start the ignition.
4. Press and release the start button again. This "sleeps" the car.
5. Raise the wiper stalk all the way and hold for three seconds.
6. Wipers sweep once and stop at fully upright position so they can be lifted away from the glass.
I tried all the methods listed above, but I'll wager everytime I tried this over the weekend I either had my foot on the brake, or I started the engine.
If anyone else was still confused, I hope this helps.
