One of mine was catching on the N/S pillar, dealer sorted it out. Wish i new how they adjusted them though.....wheres Klawit when you need him?
Back to the dealer i guess...or find another one!!
KLAWIT....you able to add to this?????
Hey ... at least will try to do so ...
The
problem has bee discussed at our board as well .... and finally, there was a detailed instruction posted by a SEAT mechanic:
First of all:
you better not try to do it on your own, as there can be easily done damage to the wiper rods, as they are mounted pretty tight and there are opposite threads to both wiper arms :
in Germany (LHD) the left wiperarm has a counter-clockwise turning thread, while the right arm has a clockwise turning thread.
Don't know, if this is equal to your setup ...
Nevertheless ... here's the steps to follow:
kosl @ seatforum.de said:
- Wischer in Servicestellung bringen,
- Motorhaube auf und Muttern an den Wischerarmen lösen,
- Motorhaube zu und Wischerarme vorsichtig nach oben abziehen,
- Wischerarme ein bis zwei Zähne nach oben versetzen,
- Wischerarme wieder fest aufstecken,
- Motorhaube auf und Muttern festziehen,
- Motorhaube zu und ausprobieren...
- get the wipers in service position (ign off, then activate wiper)
- open hood and loosen nuts from the wiper arms
- close hood and carefully remove wiper arms by tearing 'em upwards
- readjust wiper arms by shifting them on the rod for 1-2 notches
- firmly attach wiper arms
- open hood and tighten nuts on the wiper arms
- close hood ... and try out.
As always: this is without any guarantee from my side and if you decide on trying it out, it's at your own risk ...
