Hi all

I have noticed that both wiper arms are getting slack at the pivot point near the base so the wipe is just not as good. Anyone know if it is easy to get hold of new ones - cost etc? replacing might be fun as I remember a few years ago I went to paint them and was'nt able to remove them as the nut was SOLID. Any tips?

Cheers.

Donald.
 
I can't help you, but I'll be watching this thread with interest. On my last two MoTs, I have been advised of wear in the driver's wiper arm joint. However, this was not an MoT failure as it was.
The car needs a new MoT this month, so I may be asking the same questions soon.
 
I was asking as my MOT is due soon - 9th feb, but I believe I can get it done a lot sooner which I would like to do as the next (and final)addition to the family is due on the 11th feb :eek:
Which reminds me I will have to go up into the loft to fetch the seventh seat:(
 
Just had my Ulysse MOT today, 138000 miles Cost! £46
They only had to change the LED type bulbs I had put on the number plate, I was meaning to do it any way.
On the subject of MOT's does anyone know why there is a peel off label on the bottom now?
