noisy screen wiper blades

[ORAC60]

i have a vauxhall zaphira and one of my wiper blades screems when it raining
i have put new blades on but it aint made no difference
any ideas

i also have had this.
due in part to grease on the screen.

the best cure is Sillicone blades, expensive initally but so much better and last much longer with absolutely no screech - even in very light drizzle.

Regards.

try cleaning your screen with vinegar sounds mad but the rally teams use it!!

As long as the wipers are a tight fit and they are not them �1 wonderwipers that side should be ok , failing that tweek the wiper arm slightly so the blade stands upright and is not laying over itself , if you are not sure take it to your local windscreen fitting centre and they will do it or show you how to do it,

Further to the above - all of which are relevent- make sure the blades are 90 degrees to the screen maybe by bending the arm.
