I've used Rainex in the past (on other cars) but never liked the action.

Best bet, take your daily driver, buy new blades (Bosch Icon is a very good choice) and get somebody to do a well applied Aqua-pel.
-and then wait for the next rainy day , and you will be hooked for life [8]

Hi Russ,

I had a similar prolem - took me a few goes to get it right, a mix of refitting the blade to the spindle and adjusting the pantograph position.

When I first had the car the wiper was horizontal at full wipe [:(!]

Ialso found the pantograph had been wrongly fitted which din't help, after refitting and a bit of adjustment it is fine now.

As you are local you would be welcome to have a look at my car for a comparison - its on sorn for the winter so its stuck in the car port for now.
