Offline | Wipers Is there anything you can do to wiper blades to stop them squeeking/juddering? Car is only 2 months old and the front wipers are already starting to annoy. Dink Dank Doo! |

Offline | Trouble is, they were fine to start with. It's just the last couple of weeks that they have started to be a pain. Just wondered whether cleaing them with anything would help Dink Dank Doo! |

Offline | there has been much debate over it, but I use Rain-X. i got the pack with the cleaner compound in it. i like it as it measn you hardly have to use the wipers. once you're above about 40-45mph the wipers don't even need to be on intermittent when normally they'd be on constant slow speed. as you use the wipers less there's less juddering. i also think the wipers move better across the screen. i think rain-x is fantastic. all my cars have it and i even use it on my JCB Fastrac! if you don't want to use rain-x, auto glym glass cleaner (blue creamy stuff) is good.
