Rear Wiper
« on: 26 April 2006, 10:02 »
Bizarely enough my rear wiper arm snapped off last night !! Its been playing up for a while but i thought it was just the blade , oh no .

Good news is they stock them at VW for £12 . Hoorar

I have never heard of anyone having to buy a replacement .

They also stock genuine ones at ECP for £8!! Mine stopped wiping half the window as apparently the springs lose their tension. As I unbolted it and pulled it off it just snapped, which was a bit weird (could see where the metal had a weak point). That month I also had to replace the washer jet and the end cap on the arm. (You should see what some muppets pay for wiper arms and covers on ebay :rolleyes:
