W203 Windscreen Wipers

[britnordic]

Hi All

I Have just encountered a new irritating noise coming from my windsreen wipers. Every time the wipers return to the nearside of the screen a loud "click" is heard from the nearside.

Has anyone had experience of this and found a remedy? Can't see anything unusual on the exterior, or could it be the mechanism?

Thanks
Tony

There is no linkage on the NS. The linkage is only between the centre & the OS. For the noise to be on the NS, when the wiper is on the NS (half way through it's action), the noise must be the wiper itself.

Sprayed WD40 everywhere this morning before reading your thread and it appears to be quiet. Mind you the blade does need replacing!
