Cause 3D View to actually start working on my ConnectedDrive app? Questions, questions....

I understand Tesla recommends against Rain X etc because they claim it causes “streaking, squeaking and smearing” on windshield.
I have used Rain X for several years and never experienced those issues but I don’t drive a Tesla.
