Help Identify sensor for me

[Guest]

I have been round and round with my local Porshce dealer since a wreck about a year ago. My last issue was the V1 radar detector that they say was destroyed in the wreck. While they were replacing it they sent it to another shop. Once I recieved the car back I noticed the bracket were the top latches was loose. This was causing the windows to go crazy and I noticed the latch point was loose. It appears as though whoever was working on the radar detector had removed this and put it back minus a screw. They evidently took it out to remove the missing sensor that I noticed was gone after I saw the thing moving when I tried to close the top.

This is fixed, but I noticed that a sensor that was on the windshield is missing. I do not know what it was for and was hoping some one could identify it for me.

It was dark grey or black and had a wire that ran into the latch cover. It was about three inches long and about the size of a pencil. It had a symbol on it that as best I can remember was a y with a circle around it. It was attached to the windshield just above the rearview mirror. It is gone know and I am needing to figure out what it was as the Porshe place says it was not a temp or rain sensor. I don't know, I don't believe it was a rain sensor as I did not have this option. I figured it was part of the temp sensor that reads on the dash, but they say not. I just need to figure out what it was so I will know if it is OK that it is gone.

I have seen microphones that fit that description on some of the higher end hands free units. HTH.
