can't afford anything from SM bigcry.gif. anyway, the cheapo wipers works a treat at the moment so will see how long it'll last this time. used it on my previous jap cars and they seem to last abt 1 yr.

Soya, I just changed to Aero Wipers... Works a charm...

My Duratech ones lying in the boot now laugh.gif

 

The new S40T5 is using those aero wipers...

 

You will need to change the arms as well... but there's no turning back now...

 

Plus looks nice to me too wink.gif

Go get it... seriously! thumbsup.gif

 

Where did you buy it from? I am game!

I am also having the much dreaded judders and the expensive DuraTech seems to have made it worse.

Some of u may know of my long suffering wiper juddering saga. SM hv obligingly changed 3-4 sets of wipers for me incl expensive PIAA silicon wipers, adjusted the wiper arm tension, windscreen polished dunno how many times. On my own hv turned to freaking expensive Dura edge wipers, Autoglym glass polish and oso used the $20/bottle autoglym windscreen washer fluid as recommended by the glass polish (but of course!). None of these seem to hv worked.

 

Since none of these expensive solutions seem to do the job, thot i go the opposite direction and try the cheapo stuff instead. Forget the fancy blades and imported stuff and went for the natural rubber, $9 made-in-malaysia NWB wipers and $1.50 blue washer fluid which are readily available from any petrol kiosks. And waddaya know, the wipes are as smooth as a baby's botton now!!

 

Moral of story? Malaysia Boleh!thumbsup.giflaugh.giflaugh.gif

 

 

I have the same problem with you Soya... am on DuraEdge now but seems like these expensive silicons have made the judder more pronounced. $$ down the drain.

 

Now considering the Aero Wipers if they have the "arms" for my babe.

actually, the NWBs seem to exhibit the same qualities leh. thumbsup.gif juz dunno how long it'll last tho. but since it's so cheap, can change fresh rubber frequently. remember my modus operandi? sly.giflaugh.giflaugh.gif
