[Mk2] [Generic] Recommend me a wiper

Post by samdale »

Standard wiper seems to lift off at 80 odd and not clear the windscreen very well. It's fine at lower speed but starts to "skip" above 80.

Don't want anything too obnoxious/tacky such as a chrome effect plastic wiper spoiler, just a wiper that won't lift at speed

It's usually the spring in the wiper arm that is the problem.
If that's saggy, then no wiper will sit well.
