wipers

[sunilr1]

Just gave the Tig its first wash, like I always do I like to lift the windscreen wipers off the screen to clean it. Found I couldn't lift them, the bonnet is in the way! Good job I was gentle otherwise could have lost some paint. Am I missing something?

If they are like the mk6 golf, the only way to lift them is to push the wiper stalk down before turning the ignition of. This makes them stop halfway through a sweep so you can lift them from the screen.

That's spot on advice. Exactly what I do for my Tig.

To 'fine tune' the above advice, :
Turn the ignition OFF, then toggle the wiper stalk down. Wiper will do half a sweep, to the 'service position'!
Good stuff!

No doubt it is, but as I have not had a need for that bit of info, I havent seen it before. Whilst the Service Book is very detailed, it is also a rather convoluted and dry read and I certainly havent read it from cover to cover.

Time you did then, there's all sorts of stuff in there !!

Would recommend a look through the service book, has this and some other important (quirky) info in there... Very useful in times of need like a break down, tyre change etc...

...the owner's manual has also Index at the back, so you can find the things quickly.
