Mk3 rear wipe
« on: 05 May 2012, 14:15 »
ok is it me or is the rear wiper system on a mk3 reallllly! stupid,turning it on is not a problem it's getting the damn thing to stop wiping without triggering the rear wash!!!! it would seem you have to push the stalk 3 times in quick succession to switch the damn thing off which then triggers the rear wash,it's not a massive problem but is a little annoying  :grin:

It is an annoying system but i only have to touch mine quite gently to switch it off.

I was looking at Myra wiper today as I am going to remove and blank it like I did on my other mk3s.
This one seems to be diferant to my others though as the water jet is on the wiper arm itself at the bottom. Never seen this on a mk3 before. Is it what the early mk3's had?
