Good afternoon all,
I looked in existing threads and couldn't find an answer, hopefully I haven't missed an existing one!
I took my Grande Punto (2007, 1.4 77hp) about a month ago to get new springs. While they were working on the car the had to remove the wipers and they noticed that the bolt head on the driver side had been previously glued on. They replaced the bolt and it's been working fine so far (although I haven't used the wiper as much) but yesterday I noticed that the wiper is catching on the bonnet plastic.
I saw other people reporting a similar issue but it has never done that prior to the the bolt replacement. I also noticed they added some spacers so it could be that the bolt is too long and maybe isn't pushing the wiper down correctly.
Does anyone have the size and length of the original bolt. I looked for a new arm as well but they seem out of stock everywhere.
Let me know if more details are needed.
Many thanks!
