Wiper Lift

[07_aveo]

As soon as I hit 100 km/h, they lift. I may have to actually dedicate some time to working the hinges with penetratiing fluid. Last time, I just sprayed them and drove away.

My lifts or rather jutters at any speed. 0-200km/h. Stationary it also jutters. I am used to it.

Count me in on the weak wiper springs. I too can lift mine 2 inches and they will stay there.

I'm going to try some oil and lube as suggested.

I made another thread recently about wasting money on an expensive bosch wiper blade.

Its shape is supposed to help keep it pressed to the window.

-dont believe the hype, worst wiper blade ever.

paint also chipped on mine near the hinge - i think my dealership did this.

I actually have some rain ex Ive never tried...gonna give it a shot.

There's an old truckers trick - in a jam, a potato sliced in half and rubbed across the window will net similar results. I never tried it.
might be to cold to apply it for the next few days though.

I soaked mine with penetrating fluid for an hour, worked them back and forth then lubed them. Never had a problem with lifting since.
