Renault Grand Scenic 2006 - Wiper judder and noise problem - ubuntooler

Hi

Have recently replaced my original Renault wipers with new Renault wipers but experiencing a squawking noise from the driver side wiper when it starts to wipe (especially when screen is wet) There is also judder from both arms on the downsweep when screen is wet. Have tried changing the arm direction to no avail. Only problems with the wipers have been the odd occasion when the driver side wiper has hit the bonnet on high speed wipe when wet only.

Tried some cheap wipers but they squeak even more. Was wondering if the linkage is away and whether to try replacement push rods as shown on: www.wiperlinkage.co.uk/ or even new arms/wipers (Bosch) but doubt that new Renault wipers could be poor though I see the design has changed a little (less clips on back of wipers)?

Thanks

Try cleaning the windscreen and the wiper blade(s) thoroughly with a sponge rubbed with soap/ washing up liquid to get the grease off.
