I have a 2003 C200K. Fantastic car.

The passenger side wiper isn't working I guess its a problem with teh linkage. Question is how do I remove the cover to inspect it?

Thanks, How naive of me to think that the arm would be on a spline. What a cheap design just to rely on the clamping force to provide the drive to the arm.

Lesson, always try the bl**ding obvious!

That was the easiest quickest bit of car stuff ive ever done - obvious as you said - wiper working again - nut was so loose you could start to tighten with hand - did use wrench thing tho!
