Title: How to stop wipers 'banging' at the end of their travel?
Post by: russ-vdub on 29 January 2014, 17:57
Is this just a case of adjusting on the spline a bit or do I need to bend something in some direction?

Unless you have a serious problem with wear in the linkage, it is a simple fix by removing the nut and moving the arm on the spline

You can pull the mech off the motor and turn it if it's hitting the scuttle. Also it's not hitting the plastic ecu cover is it?
