Hi all, I have had an issue with my 208 when it's raining and using the wipers that the windscreen does not clear very well. It's almost like it smears everything across it and a second or 2 later it clears. I have changed wiper blades and even the screen but still seems to be the same...

Hi, I've noticed that when it rains hard, all the wiper settings produce constant fast wipers, even the intermittent settings. Once the rain eases, they still run fast on all settings. On days when rain is light, all settings appear okay. Could this be a relay issue? Does anyone know...

Does anyone find they streak really badly? Seems like not enough arm pressure onto the windscreen. I'm getting really bad streaking on the way back down right in front of my eyes. Dealer is ordering new arm but I fear it will make no difference as the whole mechanism where it attaches to car...

Here's a good one. When left turn selected, wipers stop. Does this sound expensive.

What a nightmare!! I have replaced my front wiper motor for a brand new unit. Assembled everything right, dry run the motor (without blades fitted) to get to start position. Refitted blades and now the wipers try to go down instead of up! What could be the cause of this?
