    Thats exactly where the wear is on mine, i had the whole mech out recently to replace the wiper motor, and there is some play in the long cross bar which links the 2 wipers. So i'll be changing that, and the shorter bar which runs from the "crank" arm the the longer connecting bar. Cheap enough bits anyway, surprising really...

    Just re-read your post, my MFA reading is sometimes feint too, wondering if the clocks can be overhauled in any way??

    I've had the exact same prob with my valver. Did you use GSF sensors when you swapped out? I did and they are shite. The problem remained. Changed them for genuine (not much price difference) and problem solved...

    Does anyone have the part numbers for the linkage arms for the wiper mech on an early valver pls? Really gotta get this done as the "swishthunkswishthunk" is really starting to grate. Cheers guys...

    I used double sided "mirror tape" from B&Q, also used it to refit the bumpstrips on the drivers side so plenty strong enough for badges but wont take the paint if the chavs return. Cheaper too....

    My drivers side footwell always get wet when it rains, the roof lining in the very corner/ behind the drivers sun visor also gets wet. The screen has been replaced in the past, so i'm startin to suspect the re-fit, but i wanted to check the sunroof drains. The sunroof however only tilts, so as bristolbaron said earlier, can the drain holes not be accesed without a sunroof removal??

    Look up VOLKSAPART IN Google, i've just had a recon pump from them for my '90 valver, about 65 quid delivered with 3 month warranty.... P.S. you need the type with the short shaft... Hope this helps...
