Thumbs up Wiindshield Wiper Noise

I posted a video on youtube entitled BMW Windshield Wiper Noise Fix.


While I know there are lots of factors that can go into wiper noise, I finally figured out the culprit for me .. the blade rocks back and forth in the mount. First I figured out which blade was causing the noise by lifting them alternately and found it was the passenger side blade.


I solve the issue by sliding a piece of a credit card in the mount to keep it from rocking.




Not sure if it's okay to post videos!

Too late for me to post a video of the noise. If you have a clean windshield and blades and a blade makes a loud noise at the end of it's stroke, just check the wiper blade in he mount. If it rocks back and forth that's what is probably causing the noise.
