Wiper blades .... - Toyota Yaris Forums

Lafiro · 07-24-2009, 11:08 AM

I somehow thought the drivers side was 18. Im wrong, the one on there is probably 26inches. I need to flush out the window washer fluid tank.

I put in there some very old and strong window cleanr I got from this guy who cleans coach buses. I believe this is damaging the window/blades.

Even in the rain last night, I noticed it leave a streak, and even in HEAVY rain, the passenger side wiper skips badly on the glass towards the top end.

So I am going to try washing the window with alcohol, windex, and then putting some wd-40 on the wiper blades. This will be all after washing out the tank of the remaining crappy washer fluid. And I will see how they act after that.

And I have a sedan, so I really cant be using LB parts...?
