Does anyone know if it’s possible to adjust the sweep range of the front wipers?
The drivers side wiper clunks against the inside of the A pillar and just needs to have a few mm taken off its travel.
Thanks

Has someone possibly fitted the wrong length of wiper blades??

Would be worth checking or even buying a new set.

I remember it was covered previously. Most likely they need adjusting. My wipers moved when we had snow and I had to readjust them

I called Porsche recovery when this happened to me and a very nice AA man fixed it for me.

I did have a go myself but didn't have a socket or spanner the right size and figured it was free to get them to do it.
