Wiper Problems

Having problem with segment not being wiped because it appears that one of the wipers is about an inch too short but have been assured that what I have at 26" driver and 16" are correct. Is there any adjustment on position of wipers? Has anyone else had this problem. Did have wipers replaced by dealer because of residue being left on windscreen (see previous posting Teething Problems) which it solved..but now this!

Prolem Wiper

I had the same problem from new and found that it was due to faulty wiper which had excess lump of glue. The glue onto which wiper is located was fibrous and too large so it was touching and smearing the windscreen. See attached close up photo. The new one had a lot less glue. It worked fine and continues to work 12 months on! Should add that only had problem with driver side but replaced both as dealer provided free of charge.
