wiper linkage

[shotgunsjay]

i had the issue with the sticky wipers it came then went, then the other day i tried my wipers and nothing, at first i thought it was the motor, i stripped it all down only to see the linkage had seized where the wiper pins are, i tried to strip this, managed 1 but the other i had no chance = bigger hammer = snap lol

anyways where can i get just the wiper linkage for my 200, its a valeo part that was already on,

need to get this asap, also how much are they usually?
cheers

From a main dealer I would imaging if you want a brand new one.

As for price depends what side you need, think driver side is around £120 and passenger is £200 ish (might be other way around)

sorted it now, had it welded up, cleaned and copper slipped all moving parts, jobs a good un'

I had an issue with my linkage mechanism too due to leaves and moisture buildup corroding the joint. It sezied and the wipers stopped.
Reno quoted me £140 for a new wiper linkage! Sod that - got one off ebay for £70. Common issue it seems; wipers seizing up.

its an easy enough fix if you dont go mental with a hammer lol
