Dear 2carpros,

I have attached a picture, I cannot remove the rear wiper arm, the nut come off easily but not the arm. I have tried with lots of WD-40, ( soaked in WD-40) gently (and later not gently) hitting with hammer both directions. There should not be screw threads so it is should came off easily, but I gave up. I would be grateful if I can get an answer for this silly problem.

Many Thanks

Sounds like it has oxidized the two pieces together looks like both pieces are made out aluminum. See if you can find a product made by sea foam it is called deep creep. It is a penetrate works great if not second choice PB blaster that is another penetrate. Then get a wiper arm puller and use that to remove it. You might have to end up replacing the wiper motor.
