De-Wipering

[MatthewBrooks]

How hard is it to do and how do you do it?

Do any of you guys have a little guide or a link to a guide i could use?

Cheers people!

Try using the search tool buddy, this question has been asked a few times.

Basically, you take the plastic cap off. Then undo the bolt, then using a pulling tool that you can buy from Halfords you pull off the wiper arm.

Unscrew the plastic bit inside the boot lid and unbolt the motor. Pull the motor out and insert a grommet that you can get from a peugeot dealer for less that 5a. Jobs a gooden (i think i explained it right)

Hope i helped mate

13mm nut on the wiper arm

3x T20 torx screws on the blackboot cover, left, right and centre

Unclip motor connection

Then 3x 10mm nuts which hold the motor to the boot.

Hardest bit is taking the wiper arm off the spindle so that you can take it all off the car, plenty of wd40 or other lubricant and a bit of a wriggle and it should come off.

874542- plug
874543- washer
874544- screw

thats the part numbers that you'll need to seal the hole in the window, or you could use a simple grommet from halfords, just make sure its secure if you do the latter :)

Good Luck

Mk1 is much easier than Mk2.

Mk2 is actually so hard, I'd advise you just hacksaw it off - Not joking ;)

Come on Matty, i expected more from you! :p

SEARCH button - its there for a reason lol ;)

btw be careful when doing it....

i tried to take the rear wiper off my saxo 2day and i turned out i have to buy a bloody new window. i disconnected the motor and then i took the wiper arm off. these came off handy enough with a bit of oil. then i tried to slide the motor out and shattered the whole window. these can be in pretty tight. its just a warning to other saxo owners that you need to take as much care as possible or end up paying £110 to dewiper your car. i could of thought of a whole lot of other ways to spend that money.

I would advise that to avoid the above (risk of shattering window) that you leave in the 3 nuts on the motor until you actually have got the wiper arm off the spindle.

As the motor will still be securely attached to the boot itll be much more supportive when you're trying to detach the arm

Oh and im sorry Oli your going to have to smack my bum now! :P heehee
