Wiper noise - 2.0 TDI

[CJSmith]

Howdy, new member here...

I am really at the end of my tether with my car - 2.0TDI, MK7 Right Hand Drive making a noise from the front wipers.

Its been making this noise for about 18 months or so in which time, I have also replaced the windscreen.

At 40mph, no wiper noise whatsoever though as speed increases the wiper noise increases to ridiculous levels. Almost like a grating noise coming from the lower section of the windscreen on the drivers side.

Ive checked and changed the following

Wiper linkage and motor - replaced with genuine VW parts.
Wiper arms (both sides) - replaced with genuine VW parts.
Wipers - Bosch replaced with Champion

No matter what I do, the noise is irritating at best, infuriating at worst. I got so annoyed, I changed parts with my other MK7 Golf and when the parts were on the other car, no issues were seen. Put them back on my car, noise...

Nothing I have checked or changed has made any difference and I cant physically see what else can be causing this.

Anyone any ideas at all?

Cheers.

Check if there’s play between the plastic blade and metal arm interface. Squeezing the metal holder tightened it up and solve my noise issues.

As on the other forum, sounds like Soundakator(SP) issues.
