Re: [mk2] wiper motor reconditioning



The sleeve at the bottom of the wipers, where the
wiper arms pivot on themselves, can be scuzzy, and
thus hard for the motor to turn. You can take that
apart and clean it. Be carefull to mark everything so
that it goes back EXACTLY the same way, or else the
wipers will work funny.

Cheers.
