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...

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.
