Hi Neil Sounds like it's your BSI. I have exactly the same fault on my 01 HDi 90. Basically the problem is that the BSi unit is not detecting the wiper park switch. The wipers will run for about ten seconds and then 'time out' and stop. I doubt it's your stalk, however you can check it buy seeing if...

HDi Glowplug dash light.

just a quick one I have a 2001 HDi 90. It's says in the book that the glowplug light should come on with the ignition when the engine is cold. However my light has never worked since I bought the car. I have checked the bulb which is ok. Should this work on HDi's? Possible causes? Many Thanks Julian
