C4 Picasso wiper arm position

Post by RichardW »

Slight troubles here...

Took the wiper arms off as part of changing the fuel and air filters, but can't seem to get them back in the right position, and they are clashing. Anyone know where they are supposed to be aligned? Service box is not helpful as it just says refit and check operation!!

Yes most windscreens have alignment marks on them to set the wiper position.
You’ve not mixed them up & put them on the wrong side have you?

Fixed it, put them back in the service position and driver's side was well down the screen, put it back on vertical and seems to work OK now. No idea what happened.... Can't put these on the wrong way , they would be wiping the top of the engine 😜

Now if someone knows how to get the sensing pipe off the air filter lid, I could do it without removing them next time.... Probably the diesel filter too now I know how to get the two part clip on the inlet undone - YouTube help required to find out you need to LIFT the tiny tab in the centre first...
