Default Parking sensors

...my rear parking sensors have started chirping when the car is wet. Is this normal? Or shall I claim on warranty.

Go get it fixed under the warranty. Sensors chirping just because they are wet is NOT normal...

I've not driven it enough in the wet to know.

Default Not just Jag

I don't know if its the water as much as dirt that sticks to the sensor from water running down it.

I've actually had this problem on 2 BMW X5s, my wife's audi Q5 and my 08 XKR.
