Valeo Ultimates...meh. Posted by B Millar [Email] (#1109) [Profile/Gallery] (more from B Millar) on Wed, 19 Mar 2008 09:21:39 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
I got my Valeo ultimates yesterday from Tirerack and put them on today, but I am not all that impressed. Yeah they look pretty cool/sleek and are very quiet. The upswipe is beautiful, not one drop of water gets past the blade. But on the downswipe, it's almost like it glides right over all the water, just making a streaky mess. Which wouldn't be a problem I guess except for when you're using the delay and the streaky mess sits there until the next upswipe. It's only on the driver side. The passenger side works well except for the ~2 inches it misses totally on the far passenger side. What's up with that? Anyway, I noticed on the driver side that the streaking is only in the center third or so of the blade. Could my wiper arm spring be getting tired? I know it's been brought up here before, but I don't think we got any definite answers. Thanks.
