I changed my wipers for Bosch aerotwin and wipers become very squeaky. I become wery angry and went to Fiat dealer and bought original wipers. Wipers become squeaky again. What should I do?

I clean and polished my windshield but didn't work...

This is how it look like(not my video):

Which wipers do you use?
 
I find they all do this after a month or two of use. The longer blade of the two is the worst for it as it flexes slightly when in use, causing the edge of the blade to skip/jump across the windscreen (in a farty noise kind of way). I've not watched the video BTW, no sound at work

I've just learned to put up with it, seems daft paying £20 a time to replace noisy wiper blades when they work fine

That video sounds like ice on the screen! Are the wiper arms on properly? If they are not then the wiper will hit the edge! Are the arms allowing the wipers to sit properly on the glass? They should sit at 90o to the glass.
 
That doesn't sound like the blades' to me, sounds more like the actual wiper linkage system.
 
1. make sure the is no sloppe/ free mevement from the wiper arms or linkages.
2. clean the windscreen
3.Remove the wipers
clean them with alcohol
wipe some Borax Glycerin (from the drug store) on to the rubber wipers
reinstall

I did all this but didn't work...
 
I think you may need to take the entire wiper mechanism off the car check if nothing is loose or broken, it sounds like a metallic clunk and the wipers are not metallic.
