Just bought a second hand 1999 Primera and the wiper on the drivers side makes an awfully loud sqeak/screech!
I've changed the wiper blade three times (new ones), the glass appears totally clean (no grease or smears). No apparent flaw in the screen either.
Please tell me how to sort this. MikeWhy do my windscreen wipers make an awful noise! ?
this is caused by the blade not turning over at the end of a sweep. You need to twist the wiper arm slightly with an adjustable spanner while supporting the arm with another adjustable to avoid putting strain on the wiper motor rack.Why do my windscreen wipers make an awful noise! ?
Even if your windshield is clean, if it hasn't been maintained, then it still has microscopic nicks and scratches in it from dust, etc. in the wind hitting it repeatedly. Run your hand over the glass. If your hand sort of %26quot;clings%26quot; to the glass and you have a hard time moving your hand across it, then you need to use a product called %26quot;Rain-X,%26quot; or something similar.
Rain-X is silicone based, kind of like a wax for windshields. It'll make your glass super-smooth by filling in all the imperfections. It should take away the noise your wiper is making, and, the rain will roll right off of your windshield.Why do my windscreen wipers make an awful noise! ?
get a new stanly knife blade and check the screen surface for ''bits''....failing that try lifting up the blades and trying it,,,if it still makes a noise change the whole wiper unit inc lincages from a breakers yard car.Why do my windscreen wipers make an awful noise! ?
is it good quality baldes your using and not the cheap ones
the actuall arm that go onto the wiper spindles may be worn and causing the wipers no to make the correct contact with the windscreenWhy do my windscreen wipers make an awful noise! ?
Cheap wiper blades do this fit bosch or similar good quality not ebay cheapies

How do I keep my car's windshield grease/oil free ?
my car's windshield seems to have a thin film of something on it so when it rains at night and I put on the wipers I can hardly see as the wipers seem to spread the film more. I use windscreen cleaning solution and all kinds of glass cleaners and nothing has worked. Even changed the wiper blades twice over 6 months.How do I keep my car%26039;s windshield grease/oil free ?
i own a repair shop,and try cleaning it real good ,and use some rain-x on it,,this stuff really works good ,and it last for a while too,but it will help keep a lot those things from sticking to it,,good luck,i hope this help,s,,and happy thanksgiving.How do I keep my car%26039;s windshield grease/oil free ?
t_man.. I have exactly the same problem on my windshield. The layer spreads and kills visibility before it sublimes on rainy nights. I have tried everything you had tried before you found the right solution. Can you please tell me what you did?
use a grease remover(like %26quot;simple green%26quot;) and then glass cleaner... also if it is an older car go visit your local Napa Store and try %26quot;innovision%26quot; wiper blades. They are awesome. Some older cars wiper arms loose tension and so the innovisions are designed to make tighter contact with windshield....How do I keep my car%26039;s windshield grease/oil free ?
It might be your washer fluid that is the issue. My dad used a can of Coca Cola after visiting the beach to remove the film!
Anyway, I use a mixture of dishsoap and alcohol, which is used in eye glass cleaner. Most all commercial products use alcohol in their products as well. At the very least, clean your glass with straight alcohol to break down the film and then use Rain X which does indeed work well and for a long period of time.
Good luck.How do I keep my car%26039;s windshield grease/oil free ?
yeah, Rain-X is magical stuff. God bless the inventor of it. One time, my windshield wiper motor stopped working so I couldn't use the wipers. I went and bought Rain-X and wiped it on kind of heavy. After that, I didn't even need to repair the wiper motor, the Rain-X was that good. Though, I must say I don't recommend/endorse you to do the same thing. Maybe I was just lucky....I think so. I only did it because I didn't have the time or money to repair the motor.

if you are replacing the whole wiper arm, the majority of cars only have a nut holding each one on. just undo the nut, take the arm off and put the new on in the same position as the old one.

How do I get a wiper arm off?
I just bought a Peugeot 406 `98 estate. Some previous idiot changed the wiper blades to opposite sides. There is a 22 inch %26amp; a 24 inch. I could tell right away that the longest should be on the driver`s side. I checked my theory out on another identical car.
Thing is the same idiot put a clip in the long one so I can`t just swap the blades.
I need to get the entire arm off in order to try to get the clip off.
I upped the bonnet %26amp; undid the securing nut, but the arm wouldn`t just lift up off the thread as I thought it would.
Is there some kind of secret to getting the damn thing off?
I`m afraid to pry it.
I need help, please.How do I get a wiper arm off?
if you really think the arm need to come off...the nut pushes it onto a spline...its like a post with small grooves and as the nut is tightened it clamps the blade so it won't rotate.which when you think about it is wise..you prise it off with a screwdriver blade from the lower part...carefully...your fingers and the windscreen ar not far away....having said all that....l think they do not need taking off...just undo the wipers from the clips.at the end of the metal arm..usually they snap in place the plastic bit has a little spigot on it which need releasing.using a tiny screwdriver.then swap the blades...and cool off prior to starting...if you get angry with cars..they bite back..lol..read the manual before starting to check you are right....just suppose you are not..eating words is no fun...How do I get a wiper arm off?
just try and get a small screw driver under neath and gently lever it up off the splinesHow do I get a wiper arm off?
it should pull off without taking the wiper arm off, look for U shaped plastic clip and pull it outwardsHow do I get a wiper arm off?
you need to pry it off, the spindle that the arm is attached to is knurled,it has cogs like a gear around the face of it,the arm has the same things.When thee arm is pushed onto the spindle the %26quot;gears%26quot; slide between each other.How do I get a wiper arm off?
after the securing nut, the other people are pretty much right, it fits into grooves...a screwdriver on the undernieth of it will help, but also, an old body shop trick is to bend the wiper back a little bit, to help relieve the pressure, then pull and wiggle it free.How do I get a wiper arm off?
Here's a trick when you don't have a tool called a %26quot;puller%26quot; to get tapered splined shafts apart: Put the nut back on, but BE SURE it's backed off several turns. The reason is that we want to protect the threads on the shaft. Now, GENTLY hit the nut squarely with a hammer while pulling the wiper arm toard you. This tapping will usually do the trick - hit the area with a lubricant (WD40 here in the states). I had to do EXACTLY the same thing with my Citroen CX (yes, there are about 50 of them in the USA) in order to get it off to restore it.
Good luck...remember: Gently!How do I get a wiper arm off?

Changing wiper baldes on renault Clio 1997?
Hi,
Is there anyone out there who can tell me how to get the old wiper blades off my 1997 renault clio and how to get the new ones on.
I thought it would be pretty straight forward, however, I've been unable to do it.
Thank you allChanging wiper baldes on renault Clio 1997?
Yes, but the mechanism may be tight with traffic film. If it makes it any easier take the arm off the spindle so you can manoevre the whole set up more easily.
I've yet to figure out how to fit those new floppy blades.Changing wiper baldes on renault Clio 1997?
Where the blade clicks into the arm there should be a little tang that holds the wiper on to the arm. pull down on the tang and pull the blade off the hook.Changing wiper baldes on renault Clio 1997?
Lift the wiper arm off the window and turn the wiper blade at 90 degrees to it,some have a little clip that you press,but it should just slide off as you press down.Hope this helps

Automotive Jobs For 15 Year Old?
Im 15, and Ill be 16 In June. I need to get a job and start saving for a car. I want to learn more about cars, but my school doesn't have a automotive program anymore. So I figured I could maybe make money, and learn about cars at the same time. I was thinking about AutoZone or something because I had a relative who worked there and basically said if you can change wiper blades, headlights, and use a computer your good. But I dont know if this is true or not, also I dont know how old you have to be. But anyway ya, If anyone knows any places that hire 15 year olds, and have to do with Automotive please let me know. I dont care if its oil shop, tire shop, muffler, cleaning oil off the floor I dont care. As long as theres money, and car stuff involved. Thanks for reading this.Automotive Jobs For 15 Year Old?
You could try your local garages for some part time clean up, or a used car lot, most places need you to be 16 and are resrtricted on how many hours you can get. Ask your school counselor they may have papers to fill out to get permision to work. Also they may have a few good leads for you. Best bet is to ask everyone everywhere.Automotive Jobs For 15 Year Old?

Why do my windshield wipers on my car always make noise?
It seems every time I put on my wipers, they make noise. Even after changing the wiper blades. Is it what I am using to clean my windshield?
When it rains real hard or consistantly I dont get the noise, just when it is drizzling or when I get road wash from other cars, little bits of rain or water.
I've noticed with new cars they never make noise, even when the windshield is completely dry. How do I get that?Why do my windshield wipers on my car always make noise?
The noise is caused by the friction of the rubber against the glass, therefore when there is more water for lubrication, there is less friction and therefore less noise.
On the issue of newer cars not making the noise even with little or no water, that has to do with the fact that their windshield glass is new and smooth. With the smooth glass, the small amount of water is spread evenly across the glass, providing even lubrication. With an older windshield, there are scratches and knicks in the glass, giving the water a place to go and therefore not providing as much lubrication. When there is enough water (heavy rain, etc), the lubrication is there, and the noise stops.
The best chance of stopping this is to get a new windshield. However, as that is likely not a viable option, you can try the same method that one would use to remove scratches and smooth out their paint job...polish and wax.
Also, check to make sure that the arms that move your wipers aren't bent in any way, causing them to be misaligned. Good luck.Why do my windshield wipers on my car always make noise?
try using your washer, make sure it has water in it :)Why do my windshield wipers on my car always make noise?
cause your are using your wipers too much. if its just drizzling then you dont need to turn them on full speed. try rain-x !! best stuff. as long as the car is moving the rain just beads off the windshield.Why do my windshield wipers on my car always make noise?
ive have this problem with my bronco, but since i live in the desert it only rains alittle so it always happens, i found out the the springs holding it down are too tight or something and pushing to hard against windsheild, i dont know how to adjust them but when it does rain really hard it dont make the noise before of all the water.Why do my windshield wipers on my car always make noise?
Try using some rubbing alcohol on a cotton swab and cleaning the wipers with that.Why do my windshield wipers on my car always make noise?
Try triple edge wipers. They've never made noise for me or any car I've installed them on. They're a little More expensive than say An-co wipers but they have a lifetime warranty with them as well. They are silicone impregnated and that makes the water run off the windshield like rain X And helps keep them from chatteringWhy do my windshield wipers on my car always make noise?

I changed the wiper blade on the rear window of my 1991 Honda Civic DX hatchback and now it doesn't work. The front ones work fine. Any ideas on how to troubleshoot and repair this would be greatly appreciated!
ThanksRear wiper on 1991 Honda Civic DX not working?
You just changed it? Did it work before changing the blade? If it did make sure the wiper is not binding, turn the wiper on go to the rear of the car and see if it is moving or stuck. If there is no noise or movement you need to check the fuse and make sure it is not blown.

Oldsmobile repair question?
Ok, I own an 85' Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme. It needs some work. Here is a list of things that it needs:
-Fix a leak in the transmission
-A New muffler and exhaust pipe
-A Tune-up
-An oil change
-Wiper blades
I'm taking it to a mechanic for everything because I don't wanna mess anything else. I need to know how much this is all going to cost before I go so I have the money. Preferably would like an actual mechanic to answer this question but anyone who knows could give me their input too.
I need a really accurate quote or a really accurate ballpark quote, including costs of labor and all that. Thanks!Oldsmobile repair question?
They'll want to do a transmission overhaul....est $250.00 (min.)
New muffler and exhaust....est $175.00 (min.)
Tune up....$150.00
Oil Change....$29.00
Wiper Blades (2)....$6.00/ea.
Total Estimate: $726.00
**Now, we all know what happens when we are at the shop or at home waiting for the call...mechanic comes in (or calls us at home), worried look on his face and exclaims %26quot;Mr. Carowner, got some bad news for ya...while we were in there we found you're gonna need....(whatever)....%26quot;
add $500.00 to original estimate.
I could be way off depending on where you are located and who you take it to so, let's see what others come up with.Oldsmobile repair question?
Prices will vary of course. You are looking at shop labor between $68 and hour and up depending on where you take it. The only repair that might shock you is the transmission leak. You didnt state if it was shifting rough or just possibly a bad gasket. This alone could run several hundred to a couple thousand for a new or rebuilt transmission. Muffler and exhaust about $349 parts an labor, tune up usually starts at $79 and up, oil change is about $19 and up, wiper blades are around $15 and you can put those on yourself to save on a labor charge. Try to get quotes on the phone first or take it in for an estimate before dropping it off to get worked on. Get a ballpark on price or else you could end up with a very large hole in your wallet.Oldsmobile repair question?
Best suggestion, get an estimate before committing. You might also want to have different things worked on at different shops.
The muffler shops might give you a better deal on the exhaust work.
Do the wiper blades yourself (I dont care who you are)...Oldsmobile repair question?
There is NO way to get a %26quot;real accurate quote%26quot; without someone looking at and properly diagnosing the vehicle. Example: you have a transmission fluid leak, Is it coming from the front pump area? In that case the transmission would have to be removed to do the repair. Or is it a transmission output shaft seal that is leaking? A transmission cooler line? Big difference in parts but there is an even greater difference between each job in the labor time each takes. New muffler and exhaust pipe. Muffler and the pipe to the back or from the exhaust manifolds back?
Tune-up: does it need spark plugs only or cap %26amp; wires and spark plugs? There are two many variables!!Oldsmobile repair question?
Can't say about the transmission. the rest aren't too bad.

Does my car need new wiper blades?
I've had my car 2 and a half years now and never changed my wiper blades (or really thought about my wipers at all). Recently, I've noticed when I switch my wipers on (usually more noticeable in a light drizzle) that instead of clearing the water off completely like normal, I'm left with smearyness. It's not dirt smears... but more of a watermark... a wet watermark. Sorry, probably not making much sense! But kinda like on a shower door after you've just been in... the way the water sometimes 'puddles' on a vertical surface.
I'm assuming this means I need new wiper blades as I can't think what else it can be. I understand you can buy these from Halfords and are apparently easy to fit (although once saw quite a knowledgeable looking man ask for assistance in halfords to fit his...) - could some one let me know how I'm meant to go about changing them? Or how I can tell if they need changing... or is the fact that they're not actually wiping enough....?!
FYI: it's a citroen c3 and I'm pretty car-dumb...!Does my car need new wiper blades?
2 1/2 year old wipers. Yes, replace them. You should replace them once a year.

Wiper blades are very easy to replace. They are all installed the same way. The link below has a video and written instructions that should help you do it yourself.

First off, try cleaning them properly. Get a cloth and a bowl of hot soapy water and wipe well.

yes, please get new ones. call the dealership.Does my car need new wiper blades?

it would be a good thing to change them anyway - hubby is an auto tech - says you can also try an alcohol wipe and run it along the blades - this will take off any oily stuff thrown up form the roads. if not better - than buy new ones. if you hae an autozone - they might put them on for you - or stand there and talk you thru it. good luck -Does my car need new wiper blades?
1) Clean the blades like previous people said.
2) Clean the windshield, and apply a water repellent treatment to the glass. Best known product is rainx, but there are plenty of products now and they all should generally work well.
3) Replace the blades if you are still not happy.
I cannot stress how much a water repellent treatment will help your wet driving vision.Does my car need new wiper blades?
Well, that I know of, if your wipers are leaving smears across the windscreen then it seems that you have a build up of gunk on your wipers. Your best bet before buying new wiper blades is to place vinegar on a clean cloth and wipe down the blade, this should do the trick if not then consider buying new blades
Hope this HelpsDoes my car need new wiper blades?
You only need new blades if they are starting to split at the ends. What you describe is grease in the form of traffic film. It is tenacious stuff. You need to go over the windscreen with a very strong solution of washing up liquid. About a 50:50 mix with warm water. Also wipe the blades themselves with the solution. If you do a thorough job the screen should wipe clean with no smearing. Add a good windscreen wash detergent to the washer container to keep it ok.
Incidentally, I had problems with smearing due to a rubbish wash additive. I changed it to Wickes own make and it was fine. Carplan is another good make.Does my car need new wiper blades?
Yes you do... and it's a very common problem. Just ask the person that sells the new wiper blades to help you through your first time, I'm sure they would be glad to help.Does my car need new wiper blades?
Replace your windshield wiper blades. Change them once a year or sooner. Go to AutoZone, Pep Boys, or any other auto mechanics store and buy them for about $5.00 a piece. They are not expensive and they clip in so any person, mechanically inclined or not, can replace them.Does my car need new wiper blades?
Its great that your car went 2 and a half years without changing your wiper blades. It does sound like you need to change them, but only if the water streaks bother you lots. I klnow they would bother me.
Department stores like Wal-Mart and Canadian Tire (and Halford's?) usually have a whole aisle dedicated to wiper blades. There are many makes, models and styles for each car. But don't get discouraged:
For your car there will be about 3 to 5 different blades depending on performance. These blades will also fit other citroen cars.
In the aisle, there's usually a book listing your make and model. If you look up %26quot;Citroen%26quot; then 20XX%26quot; then %26quot;C3%26quot; you will get a listing of those 3 to 5 wiper blades. You'll have to remember the product codes, because that's how they're sorted in the aisle.
If you're confused yet, you can certainly ask a sales associate for assistance.
Make sure both blades are included. Sometimes you'll have to buy the right and left seperately.
You can also buy just the blades or whole wipers. I like buying wipers, they are easier to install.
Check your car's owner's manual. It should have instructions on changing the wiper blades. If not, have at her. The wipers are attached with some sort of metal clip. They are fastened using friction and downward presure on the window.
Bend the wiper blade arm upwards, it should pop up 90 degrees from the window for you to change it. Detach the old one, and attach the new one. Use gloves if your delicate, they sometimes need some elbow grease.
There you have it!
though, you might just want to avoid this whole ordeal and find some wiper blade silicone. It will be in the wiper aisle, kind of an oil that will make the blades supple again. just apply the oil with a cloth or your fingers to the blade. But for the cost of that stuff, you could get brand spanking new wiper blades.
I don't know how popular Citroen's are in Britain - there's none in Canada. You may need to go to the dealership to get your blades.Does my car need new wiper blades?

well I own 3 pennzoil quick lubes and with exception with the car wash I can tell you exactly what you would have paid. Oil change with any oil except synthetic $30.95. Tire rotation $14.95. Wiper blades (we use Rain-X brand or for more we have Bosch Icons) $19.99 for the pair. $65.89+$3.96tax= $69.85 total. Yes I would say you paid way too much since I know that other than the dealer I am the most expensive quick lube in my town.How much should it cost to have an oil change, tire rotation, and new wiper blades for a 2004 6-cyl.

Oil change no more than $30 maybe up to $50 if it was synthetic, tire rotation is $20 pretty much anywhere you go, wiper blades no more than $10 each, so ya you might have gotten ripped off a little, nothing to write home about.
Also was it a good car wash with a wax job? if so then thats a fair trade off for me, the auto car wash places around here cost $20 for the full ride.How much should it cost to have an oil change, tire rotation, and new wiper blades for a 2004 6-cyl. Subaru?
Even most dealers will charge $20-25 for oil, $10-15 for rotation and $20 for wipers installed. I think the car wash cost you about $60. I'd do more than a little complaining if I were you.
The GM dealer I go to is $20 for oil change %26amp; $10 for rotation.

dealer would be the best bet, i know those little rear wipers on some cars are a pain to try to get off and on. i dont know about infiniti but all you might need is a little wiper insert to get replaced not the whole blade. i say its up to you where you want to get the blade or insert for it but go to the dealer to get it put on, they know what they are doing, most likely they will have a oil changer come out and put it on for you, oil changers do wiper blade/ inserts all the time especially when winter hits.

stop in at your local toyota dealer and buy either the inserts or the wiper and they will put it on for you at no charge if you are not sure how to do it. the inserts only work if you have the original toyota wipers on you car.
good luckHow should I change the windshield wiper blade (driver side) of Toyota Corolla 1998?
Pretty easy to do....on these wipers, they go on very easy. Where the blade attaches to arm, push on the little tab on the underside of the blade. While pushing on that, just wiggle/pull the wiper off (downward), then just snap the new one in place, put under the %26quot;hook%26quot; (you will see this once the old blade is off), and pull up until you hear a snap.
Kinda goofy to explain, but very easy to change!!

How ever they should slide out and the new one will slide in, make sure the width of the wipe base is the same.
At the end they should have a secure clip to avoid them of falling out the arm. good luck mate.

How do you change the windshield wiper blade on my 2007 vw jetta?
I brought it to walmart to get the blade change because it seems that they ripped,the man told me that it has a weird lock on there that only the dealership can change. has anyone ever done it b4 cause i don't feel like paying 3times the price at the dealership.How do you change the windshield wiper blade on my 2007 vw jetta?
To start off, don't buy wiper at Walmart for your VW! You actually can't anyway, because Vw blades are especially designed to fit the wiper arm. I just got some for my 2007 Jetta also. They cost 20 each, which is the price of a good wiper anyway.
As far as changing them, its really not that hard at all. The only thing that might give you trouble is actually raising them off the windshield, since they hide under the hood.
Here is what you do: put you key in the ignition, and turn it to the mode right before the car starts, then take the key out, and press down on the windshield wiper lever. This should cause the the pause half way through wiping. (instructions all found in manual. Could be under %26quot;service mode%26quot; or something like that.)
Then, life the wiper of the windshield, and push in the tiny little square on the tip of the wiper arm. After that, you can just slide the wiper blade out.
I am sure your local VW dealer will help for no charge, or you can just look in the manual
Good luck!How do you change the windshield wiper blade on my 2007 vw jetta?
I just encountered this same issue with my 2007 VW Jetta. I bought and returned several wiper blades from walmart, pep boys, and auto zone before I acctually realized that even though the book in the store says it will work..IT DOESN'T! I should have known its another one of those VW traps.
Have you checked your owners manual, it may tell you how.

Dear Wipers-
Just change them annually. I normally do it at the first of September in my area, that is about when out rain season starts.
If you are living in a place like the PNW, (Pacific North West), Portland, Oregon or Seattle, Washington; I would say change those wiper blades out as soon as they start streaking the window.
As for the person who told you to use Rain-X, I agree with her. That is an excellent product. I have been using it for years. I have yet to find a better product of its type. With new wiper blades and the Rain-X, you will be good to go!How often are you supposed to change windshield wiper blades?

There is no way the wiper blades are a dealership item only. That would be against the law. If some dip-sh-t at autozone can't operate the computer, don't give up. Most replacement wiper blades have universal attachments to accommodate any car.
its the same as harrier, attachment is by a clip ( pay notice to it )
i change it using the brand Nippon Wiper Blades (NWB), lasting and reliable, they supply to Toyota oem also. try itToyota Previa - need to change wiper blades - help please!?

Hello, how do you change the wiper blades on a toyota previa van?
i know how to change blades but these are giving me the flucks!!! LOL!!! Is there a special tool or something?Hello, how do you change the wiper blades on a toyota previa van?
If you still have the original Toyota wipers, then I would recommend you buy the replacement wiper blades at your local Toyota dealer. The Do It Yourself instructions are on the back of the package bec just changed the wiper inserts on my wife's Highlander. Before doing anything, take out the new Toyota replacement wiper and measure vs one being replaced to insure you have correct size and correct one. FYI the driver's side and passenger's side on genuine wipers are different lengths. The instructions will tell you how or where to press in order to slide, separate %26amp; remove the on half with the wiper blade leaving the other half of the arm that is connected to the motor at the base. You need to observe the direction and how to reinsert this half - Before you pull off the old wiper, look closely at both ends bec they are different...one has notch. Inside there is a metal strip, one goes on each side and you will find this white plastic device to hold the wiper in place as you slide one end through tracks until it snaps into the notch. If you didn't do it right, the try aligning it again and slowly pull the wiper through each gate of the arm.... Then you can do the passenger's side...
Hope the Above Info Helps!Hello, how do you change the wiper blades on a toyota previa van?
Go to the dealer--OR go to a parts store--buy the blades and then ask the guy to help you--it takes a minute and you can actually see how it is done. Good luck
