Thread: Rear wiper not wiping top third.

I've seen this happening with aftermarket blades.... is your's genuine?, happened to me few years ago when i bought a cheap sh*tpart, i ended up replacing only the rubber blade in the original and refitting that... it's still there and working

there is a grommet AMR3932 around the motor's shaft which if is worn the arm can drop a bit under load and that could be a problem

any ideas on how to fix this?

Thanks

Spray the pivots on the frame (arm) holding the blade with a little lube (WD40/Inox etc) and then flex them gently to get movement back...

I thought I read that the plastic arm bent over time as the spare wheel gets in the way of pulling it out.
Mine does it too. Annoying!

Might try the spraying lube!
