Hi guys

Hope this is a easy one for you. My windscreen wipers work ok. When i turn them on they go from bottom of windscreen to top no problem. The problem i have is when i turn them off. They rest about 2"'s from the bottom. When i then turn them on again they go down before they go up. As if there still finishing the last cycle. ( If that makes sence).

Has anyone else had this? If so how did you fix it?

Also need some wiper blades as someone has put the wrong size on. Anyone know what size wipers i need.

Thanks for reading Smile

the sizes are different depending on the year of 206, mine for example has 22" on both wipers and they are ok. I also know some have 21" + 22" on as i believe the 21" blade fits better on the drivers side, (due to the high curvature of the corner of the windscreen a 22" blade lifts off at the edge a tiny bit on the drivers side) but this doesnt cause any issues

originally mine also had the incorrect wipers on, and it left a chunk that was not "wiped" at the top of the passenger side

Please Dont take any of my posts as written fact. They are simply my opinion and although to the best of my knowledge true, the information within them may well be incorrect.

measure your current wipers, if they are the incorrect size use a tape measure to work out what would be the correct size. Just place it over the glass and see what length covers the window correctly, takes 2 seconds Razz

i cant tell you about 1999 but with 2001 its 22"/21"
