OK. Got the idea. I squeezed each joint ever so slightly and avoided putting any pressure on the rivet which holds each joint in place. I didn't over do it so no breakages for once! I'll give it a go tomorrow. Got a long motorway trip so will probably get lots of use. I'll report back.

I'm just getting some 808s today. 25% off and a free Easter egg for the nephew!

Lets hope it cures mine.

After a gentle squeeze on each of the joints as indicated I had a very short run in light drizzle today. Not a definitive test but certainly all quiet! So far so good. Thanks for the tip  2012 5.0L S/C

Mine is in for its second service on Tuesday, last year the steeler replaced the wipers and tried to charge me on a ten month old car, will be interesting what they say this year.
I have other cars with equaly long wipers but they dont thud so this just has to be LR muppetry. letters not necessarily in the right order

Bosch wipers all the way, sort the thump out straight away...... There is nothing that can't be fixed with a hammer😜😜

Yes indeed. Mine were Bosch and were great for a few months but even they started to thump, although less than with originals, after a while. This tip seems to have sorted it for now and is repeatable  2012 5.0L S/C

Ok- I've bought a pair of 808's, done a search and can't find it anywhere- how do I get the old ones off? There's a rectangular plate on the wiper fronts with "LOCK" and an arrow. What do I do with that?

Slide the rectangular plate in the opposite direction to the 'lock' arrow and the wiper just pulls straight out  '04 td6 se

Thanks- I'll go and try that

Done!

Massive improvement. No more thud, window clears a lot better. My old ones must have been shot!

is that with the 'clamp in vice' idea or just the new 808's.. ... - .- -.
