stronger wiper motor

[zooz3]

Was wondering if anybody has replaced wimpy 2002 wiper motor with any other model motor from bosch that may have more power.

I find my wiper motor has plenty of power. They're not pushing a mop across the windscreen.

If you have insufficient power:

- pull out your linkage and clean/lube the joints

- take apart the wiper motor and clean/re-grease the internals.

That should get you going in the right direction

x2 on that. I would also take a look at cleaning up some electrical connections, particularly ground connections.

Also, Rain-X is a wonderful product. It really does work well.

I would agree. I'm not sure but i think most of the Bosch wiper motors are the same with different mounting stuff. I think I used a Saab wiper motor since it looked new and it wasn't too hard to mount. I think I had to drill 3 new holes in the mount plate to fit it. However I don't think there is any advantage since as I said they all look similar.

Rain in florida can be like driving in a waterfall. I put new linkage and spindle in. Help alittle. May dig into motor like you suggested.What dose the nylon screw adust on the motor? I do not think it any worse than a typical 2002, i just looking for qucker speed. I saw that turner race cars use marine bosch motor. Maybe i will try a mono system

It's not the wipers, it's the aero.

When it really dumps, that upright windshield just catches

every raindrop and doesn't shed it at all...

...is what I've found.
