Just wondering if anyone has experienced issues with their front wipers on the new Macan S?
Mine have had severe juddering since I collected it on 1st May and it has been back to the OPC today for a check up. Washing the screen and changing the blades didn’t work and so it is back in tomorrow for further investigation.

Interesting you mention that issue. During a test drive of the new Macan S today, there was a period of light rain. The wipers did not give a clear view and kept shuddering at the top of their stroke. It didn't appear to hit the o/s window frame upright, but that's when the noise occured. I suggested to the OPC's SE that they needed adjusting.

Next actions suggested by OPC......
1). Machine polish the windscreen and check.
2). Replace the wiper arms.
3). Check the actual windscreen profile.

Good call. Have had 3 x rear wiper blades - O.E., replaced by OPC. Then I sourced a Bosch from Amazon = judder and poor sweep was cured and still great after 8,000 miles.CharlesElliott wrote: ↑Wed Jun 19, 2019 8:09 pm 4) replace with Bosch wipers. (Solved the juddering rear on the Mk1)
