Wipers not in the correct position

[Djwoody]

Hi.
Noticed this morning that my wipers aren't sitting as they should. They are about and inch too high up the windscreen.

So when I use them they are hitting the side of the screen.

Anyone know how to cure this?

Just take the arms off and reposition 1" lower.Lift the cap to get to the nut,hopefully the arms will come off easy enough.
if they wont you will need a puller

Does the black cap just pull up?

Has this just noticed this or have you had any work done on the car recently ?

I have just got the car back from the garage after they fitted a clutch master cylinder today.

I plan to take the car back in the next few days if I am unable to sort a quick fix myself.

They must of took the wipers & scuttle panel off when doing the master cylinder I'd get them to sort it for you.

Pretty shoddy not checking that the wipers were set properly after re-installing.

Totally agree. More inconvenience for me.
On the plus side, the car drives so much better now. Nice and smooth when coming off the clutch.
