Daughter rang last night and said her 04 1.3 cdti corsa windscreen
wipers had started only working slowly. Before I head over for a look
anyone had this problem before. If it means a new wiper motor
mechanism how easy to change and anyone an idea of cost.

Thanks

Bob

Does she mean that only the slow speed position works, or are they
generally slow in all speeds?

Thanks that was my first thought but I asked on here first in case
there were known problems with these.
I'll find out more when I get there.
