    Default Wiper linkage noise question

    guys i have a question regarding my wipers. when i use the wipers on intermitant wipe when they go to the bottom of the screen there is like a clunk when they stop and im sure that the noise is there but less when on normal wiping. is this normal or should i get the dealer to look at it?

    IIRC, that's how mine started many moons ago. I put it down to needing adjusting at the next service, but it failed before I had chance!

    EDIT; No it wasn't, it was occasionally whacking the side trim. Different means, same end.

    Yep sounds like the good old linkage problem. My passenger one just failed this week, 6 months out of warrenty. Glad it wasnt middle of winter. Been quoted £120 to have it replaced at dealers.
