Hello guys, I took over my 2nd V70 (2007 model) in the summer. He no longer has the “normal” front wipers, but the new flat wipers (without the metal bars). These things are supposed to last longer and better and what else do I know… My experience so far is exactly the opposite: The first set was so worn out after 4 months that there were many, many Schlieren (thought out comment:–> Well, was a hot summer with lots of fly glues on the disk). So before v The things for Volvo in the normal car accessories were only on order or not at all, so 55 thalers left with Volvo. Now the sh…things “slurry” again (after 4 weeks (!) like devils. Yesterday on the train – speed 160, more spray than rain. Must run wipers on stage 2, because they do not really plant and almost brought away nothing more. I renewed the old wipers 1x before the winter and 1x after the winter; it was done. Well, well, that’s it. good: At “high-speed” (180 KM/H + x) the old ones were actually louder. But for that they remained on the disc. What do you think, I can demand in the context of the GW the re-resetting to the old wiper arms, since the systems are apparently NOT compatible. M.E. are these “flats” not traffic safe !!! Or can there be something wrong ? How are your experiences ? LG Walter
