Greetings Fellow Clarions Despite changing the wipers for new ones at the dealer during an A19 service, they still make horrible scraping noises. Any ideas to remedy this grating situation would be greatly appreciated. Also, the bug washer (windshield washer) is just awful. It never cleans off one pass and before you know the low fluid reservoir warning illuminates. Any ideas to improve the wash? Kind Regards to Everyone!!
Perhaps this "Windshield wiper Chatter" thread might offer some suggestions. The "Has anyone found a fix for the horrendous wiper sprayer design?" thread will confirm no one has found a solution for this unsatisfactory design. No one is happy with the ridiculously small washer fluid reservoir. The amount it holds would cause a low-fluid warning in any other car.
I put these refills on my 2018 Clarity. Eliminates the noise. Not expensive and easy to install. https://www.amazon.com/BEMOST-Frameless-Windshield-Refills-Rubber/dp/B07H28SFR7?pd_rd_w=89n0Z&content-id=amzn1.sym.deffa092-2e99-4e9f-b814-0d71c40b24af&pf_rd_p=deffa092-2e99-4e9f-b814-0d71c40b24af&pf_rd_r=MZK08CZQQTGWZ3YGCJ96&pd_rd_wg=W5Sdc&pd_rd_r=c6f36664-e8d6-4a43-8f9e-0f6ad572efbc&pd_rd_i=B07H28SFR7&psc=1&ref_=pd_bap_d_rp_1_t
Lower your expectations. Give them 3-4 passes, or more, before expecting a semi-clean windshield. The removal of some bug splotches requires a fair amount of elbow grease.
