hi all.. lately i have experienced jerkiness on my wipers when wiping the front screen. i have change the wipers, but problem still exist. the problem is more profound with the longer wiper.
anyone exp similar problem ? i dun use any wash and wax on my screen, just normal KIT shampoo. i dun experience any problems with my prev ride.
-
I encountered this during Jan, after I told TCM, changed a new wiper and now o.k. ;)
-
but i do changed my wipers too.. dun tell me their wipers not the same as mine ?
-
Mine jerk within the first week. Went to TCM change for free and ok liao.
-
but then wat the diff bet their wipes and mine ? so everytime i got jerky, i go there for free wipers? will they change without qns ?
-
Haha, I changed twice FOC, both within the first week. Change first time, no jerk, but noisy. Change second time, all okay liao. They did not ask question. They said goodwill since customer complain problem. (Think either it is really goodwill or the problem is so common that they don't ask anymore.)
-
when i call them, they say got to buy the wipers at $29. and the most funny thing is , they suspect i bought a different wiper from wat is in their stock. It is the most ridiculous thing i ever heard.. i mean, wipers is wipers, wat diff does it make ? if they wanna make money, just say so.. no need to make such a lame excuse or reason.
anyway i have found out from my friends, is might be due to me using the normal window cleaner to clean my windscreen, and that is why the problem of jerkiness happens. Will try to clean up using water this afternoon, and see how..

I use to have this problem too, is the wind screen dont have any wax so will like this.
Use the armour wash and wax can already, dont listen to TC. And dont waste $$ on wiper.
Mine use until now no problem , stock one. Last year 15 July until today so far so good.
-
Some experts and sites say wiper will jerky if we constantly use car window cleaner,n water spa(will solve this problem,dun ask me how).
they advise us occasionally clean with little bit of mama lemon plus water n wipe dry will aviod wiper become jerky too.
I did complain to TC and they just simply change a new pair for me FOC during my servicing(my wiper less than 6mth old nia)

Haha... mine also jerk within first week! Changed it for free during 1K servicing ;D

Do you mean jerking problem or other problem?
-
wiper jerking problem
-
yes, wiper jerking problem. i heard might not be wiper problem, could be windscreen surface.

Used to have this problem lei... But after I used the rain shield thing.. The jerking went off... when I use windscreen wash without coating a layer of rain shield.. it comes back...

-

Dunno lei.. at first mine jerk very badly one lei.. then one fine day use this rain shield.. sold by some carpark mobile groomer.. then the jerking stopped after the first rain.. But if I wash my windscreen with the windscreen washer.. and I didn't put the rain shield on.. the jerk comes back again... So now if I use windscreen washer I must use the rain shield thing..

wierd thing is, when i go servicing and tcm changed the wiper, no washing of my ride or whatsoever, the problem solved. After a while, now come back again. Could also be stock wiper material not good, so under heat will spoil. And reason why rain shield helps, acts as lubricant? :confused1:

hi,
i use the 3M glass sanding sponge & the glass scrub for the windscreen like once/3mths
no wiper jerking problem......but i m using the twister wipers....tried nissan wipers also no jerking problem.
glass scrub is bought from www.cleanair.com.sg or outside shops also sell.....but buy online cheaper....

hi guys,
wiper spoils easily due to the climate in sg. jerky is mainly caused by wax or polish on windscreen. using 3M sand paper for windscreen can oni clear away sands or dirts that cant see by eyes. it still depends on where u park ur car. under the sun or shade, location? i m working at tuas. so dusty and sometime i can see spots on my windscreen that dunno caused by wat?? :confused1:
My advice
jux spray water on the windscreen then start ur wiper. it can help to preserved the life span of the wiper. and try to wash ur windscreen everyday using the wiper too.
