Tempest 3rd movement fingering

After listening carefully to the Andras Schiff lecture on this sonata (http://www.guardian.co.uk/arts/audio/2006/nov/30/culture1417), I think I want to play those opening left hand arpeggios exactly as notated by Beethoven: no/very little pedal, the second note tied. I'm leaning towards a new fingering now: 5-3-2-1 for the first D minor arpeggio and my earlier 5-1-3-2 for the A major. I think this works the best. Will update this post if this changes.
