Shakes or Wobbles problem
1999 Audi A6 6 cyl Front Wheel Drive Automatic

I just replaced my blades and when the rain is light the driver side wiper jumps on the windshield rather than wiping the rain---what should I do ?

thx

Hi:
it sounds like the spring is weak in the arm assembly. You may want to try a replacement to see if it helps. Also, my brother, who has the same car, just told me he had a similar problem that was fixed with new blades so it may be the brand, size... of the new blades you got. Did it do this before you replaced the blades?

Let me know if this helps.
