Leon Rear Wiper Problem! Help!

[msnow]

Hi all, just thought id see if i could get some advice from you re my rear wiper.
i fitted it with a skoda fabia one a while ago and its been fine up until recently...
The last few weeks the rear washer sprayer in the boot lid seems to rotate round with the wiper as it swipes. i have looked at it and taken the cap off the wiper (the trim bit) and it totaly moves with the blade.
does any1 have any idea why and how this would happen, how it is attached and how it stays still when the wiper swipes etc and possibly have an idea of a fix for it? i nearly took the motor off at the weekend but thought id ask about it on here before i did to possibly save myself the hassle!
the bolt is tight on the arm (as tight as it was when i removed the original one) so its not that.
my car runs out of warranty in a few weeks (if that!) so dealer could be called upon.
Hope someone can help!
Michael

Mine did similar to this recently, the power of the spray was poor - dealer fitted me a new motor - fixed ! Did wash the window better moving with the wiper though

My problem now is the plastic wiper guard has perished and snapped ! Skoda parts for you

doesnt wash my window better! its a right pain!
and i dont think that its anything to do with the skoda bits either as it was just the arm that i bought. the bit with the problem is the seat squwerter (however you spell it!) part...!
how does it stay still when the wiper moves??
anyone know?!

It was a joke about the Skoda parts

It seizes up hence staying with the motor - needs replacing.

Happened on mine mate, the shaft cracked completely in half that supplies the water to the spray nozzle. Get the motor changed quick because what happens is the water sprays some out from the pinhole nozzle part and some p155es onto the motor mechanism / in the boot, this water then leaks right onto the boots central locking electrics and eventually shorts it out, causing your alarm to intermittently go off as it thinks the boot lock has been breached. It wasn't until my alarm started going off all the time at work that I really looked into this and traced it back to the motor mechanism. Pull the plastic cover off in the boot and see if it's damp in there. If you still have warranty then get it to the dealers quick, I think a new motor is over £70 IIRC
