Weird wiper question

[MattP]

Weird question but - got in the Clio after a few days and as I’m driving though

I don’t remember being able to see my wipers this much?

That’s where their sitting - is that where they should be and I’ve just never noticed!

I would pop the plastic panel off covering, pop the mechanism off the motor and see if they move freely. Alot of mk3 wiper mechanisms are seizing and display odd features, slow wipers, stopping in a weird place or not going full travel.

They generally sit that high. On a full sweep they should just fall short of the edge of windscreen.
I’ve repositioned mine to sit lower but as a consequence they travel less across the glass.

Must be in my head then!
