A 150 Rear Wiper - fitted upside down!

[jacqum]

The rear wiper on my wife's new A150 is fitted upside down so that it wipes the rear number plate (and scratches the paint on the boot) - as it automatically wipes when the main wipers are activated we are driving around with it lifted off - my 3 year old said that mummy's car is wagging its tail

It must have come lose on its spline, lift the cap, fit to correct place and tighten up.

Thanks

Simple 30 sec job that saved me a two hour round trip to the dealer (I did telephone them first - the sales rep said that they must have fitted the motor in the wrong way round).

You need a certain amount of qualifications to become a MB sales person.
Engineering must not be one of them.

go back to the dealer and demand that they fix the paint scratches from the wiper
