Recently my drivers side wiper decided to play up on me, and it keeps hitting the a-pillar. Anybody know how to fix this? I would "attempt" it myself, but I've only just learnt how to use a spanner. :cry:
If anyone could kindly shed some light on this, i would very much appreciate it, or even come upto farnham/aldershot and fix it for me, ill give you a couple of shillings haha.
Worst case scenario, anyone know how much garages charge to realign wipers? cheers for your help.

Sounds like its jumped a spline. Got a pic of how it sits when they arent on?

At the base, undo the bolt, bend the wiper up and give it a wiggle and pull gently.
When off, put it back on a spline or two different and bolt back up.
