have you had it scanned on vcds yet mate? and is your rear washer working ok even though its a mk5??
also try de-activating the interior sensors with the button on the B-pillar, but if its intermittent it may be a PITA to find

a couple of times when im reversing the rear wiper turned on by itself
If you have the front wipers in an active state when you s elect reverse, the rear wiper activates automatically. This is not a fault so nothing to worry about.
i'v read in a few forums the alarm problem could be the cold weather?
Hi
1st I would suggest scanning the car with vag-com for faults
then look in the measuring blocks to see what the trigger is
if it is the interior sensor you can turn down the % in adaption
