RobG Posted June 14, 2010 Report Share Posted June 14, 2010 My wipers have been juddering for ages. Recently they've been groaning, so i decided to take a look. The passenger side post pivot thing is very stiff, in fact the feeder arm popped off and i had great difficulty moving it back to put it on again. I've tried oiling, but i think it's completely fubar.So my question is, before i go to the dealers with my tub of vaseline, how much do i need to replace, and what part numbers, etc.Unit removed, faulty bit on the right.Close up.Now, is this the part number for the whole mechanism including the motor, or just the metal framework?Ta Muchly.

Silver! Posted June 15, 2010 Report Share Posted June 15, 2010 I heard you go around the dealerships with your jumbo tub of Vaseline wether you need parts or not. Did you get a price from Lupoboz? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobG Posted June 15, 2010 Author Report Share Posted June 15, 2010 Heh, no comment.I did think about it, but given as it's my daily and it's scotland, i need it fixed asap, especially as the bbpe isn't insured for business use any more.

Its not cost effective to buy parts seperatly and its piss easy to fit a new one!R x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got it from the dealers in the end, just cos they're a stones throw away. I got the main mechanism (14) for 46 quid, and the two arms (only one broken but figured i'd replace the pair) (6,7) for just over a fiver each.Motor fits straight in and job's a good un, or it will be once i fit the new arms when they arrive tmr.

Most likely!! They're essentially the same car, a lot of things are common between the two! PS - this thread is 6 years old! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skezza Posted September 14, 2016 Report Share Posted September 14, 2016 8 hours ago, Rustyspoon said: How'd you mean ? The mechanisms are basically high torque motors. When the ball joint thing came out of mine on the side of the road, I tried to fix it there and then as I always have a kit in my car. Without really testing them thoroughly, I drove off and switched them back on, only to find after a few wipes that the motor was now being impeded. The car cut out as I blew one of the main fuses in the engine (due to the ultra high resistance and spike in current) which immobilized the car. Had to wait for my old man (who was only 2 or 3 minutes away) to bring me a fuse Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
