How to Change Your Windscreen Wipers
Given the sheer amount of rain, snow, dust and debris that hits our windscreen in a week here in Britain, it should come as no surprise that they will need changing every once in a while. However, before you go off and pay your local garage to change it for you (which will cost a pretty penny), take a look at this step-by-step guide to changing your windscreen wipers. It’s much simpler than you think!
Outside of services and official inspections, many motorists might not know what the telltale signs are. Here are the two most common signs to let you know it’s time to change your windscreen wipers:
If you’ve experienced either, or both, of these issues, then the chances are your wipers need changing.
If you want to try and extend the life of your wipers further, you can always give them a monthly clean and run your finger along the rubber blade, checking for tears and cuts.
