Windshield wiper wiggles

[rsscertified]

hello po fellow peeps, ask ko po if you have experienced lalo na during hard rain, ung windshield wipers nyo medyo nagwi-wiggle? Sa akin po napansin ko last Saturday (halos walang tigil ang ulan) na nagwiwiggle ung wiper, pero maayos pa naman ang pagwipe nya, clear naman ung winshield, kaya lang medyo kainis ung ingay nya. This happens on my left windshield wiper, sa right side ok naman. Any tips to make this smooth again? btw, im using new BOSCH aerotwin wipers.

TIA

meron po akong ginagamit na rain repellant - can't remember the name pero nabibili po sa Ace Hardware, also I use Glass cleaner ng Armor All. Bawal po ba ito? Ano po dapat gamitin? thanks!

i'm using polyglaze-water mixture for washer fluid to remove mists and lubricate wiper against windshield.

You already mentioned the magic word - the wipers are NEW. That's the reason why they're noisy, from my experience.

I've noticed new wiper blades - Bosch, NWB, Denso - tend to require a period of breaking-in before they perform at their best. Within this break-in period they'll tend to judder or squeak across the wet windshield. For the most part it's normal and it'll go away as the rubber wears down its initial layer.

Bottom line is, just keep using them. The more you do, the sooner they'll shut up. HTHs

Thanks type100 - however, I forgot to mentioned that my stock wipers are doing the same wiggling action.. particularly the left wiper.. pareho lang talaga

rain repellants cause the wiper to skip. alcohol-based repellants and wiper blades don't mix. Just use the repellant on the rear and side windows...

ganun ba? sa experience ko naman walang break in period basta bago ang ganda ng pag wipe ang walang problema

update ko po kayo.. eto mga ginawa ko:

1.) Vinegar and newspaper (from other foreign car forums), cleaned the wiper blade and windshield na din, windshield wiper still wiggles (judders)

2.) Sandpaper (ung pino ginamit ko), dinaan ko sa wiper blade, windshield wiper still wiggles (judders)

3.) Sabi sa ibang forums, Carnauba Wax sa windshield, well, bumango ung windshield ko, gamit ko ung Mother's Carnauba Wax , pero ganon pa din, wiper blade still has judders..

4.) Pede din daw WD40 sa wiper blades, windshield wiper still wiggles (judders)

5.) I checked on the angles of the wiper hand. (ung pinagkakabitan ng wiper blade, tama ba ang term? hehe) inayos ko ng konti, ganon pa din. so binalik ko sa dati, ganon pa din.

6.) Finally, napansin ko - ung wiper ko pala eh di lapat sa salamin, ung wiper blade may portion na nakaangat, particularly doon sa part na nagwiwiggle.. kakapagtaka lang, kasi Bosch AeroTwin ung wipers ko, and bago lang un. So I tried fixing it pero dahil sa rubber eh mukhang mas mapapasama lang ung porma ng blade. Sugod ako kagabi sa handyman and got myself another wiper blade, checked is thoroughly kung flat or hindi (hindi ko to nacheck dati) as akala ko it will perfectly fit itself kasi rubber nga. Ayun. nung kinabit ko and turned it on, it wipes a lot better. I tried splashing some water while the blades are working and so far ok sya. Balitaan ko kayo kapag nasabak ito sa ulan ulit.

Bro, makuntento ka nalang

Im still using the same blade for two years pero i can say na ok pa naman.

Random yung pag "wiggles".

GUESS WHAT?

I CHANGED MY WIPER BLADES FOR LIKE 200 pesos. Not the whole wiper, just the blades andd.....[SIZE=6]IT DOESN'T WIGGLE AND/OR MAKES ANY WEIRD SOUND [/SIZE]

[arieslhon]

na experienced ko din ang wiper wiggles pero intermittent and only left side lang naman at take note bago din po ang blade na gamit ko....
siguro sabi nga ng iba eh hayaan muna na gamitin ng husto para mawala ang wiggles pero nagtataka lang ako bakit yung left side lang?
sinubukan ko nga pagpalitiin yung left to right same pa din eh...
