Wiper Contacting Bodywork

[Gilez]

As I only received my Roc at the weekend, and it hasnt rained, I have only just discovered that the passenger side front wiper blade appears to be contacting the black plastic at the bottom of the windscreen and is giving a distinctive knocking sound when it does. I dont think it is touching the bodywork, but will go and double check in a minute with a torch.

It only seemed to happen on an intermittent wipe rather than when on constantly, and seems that the wiper is returning to the bottom of the windscreen more than on a constant wipe.

I will be popping to the dealers on Thursday, so will get them to check it, but am concious that it is annoying and may be contacting the body work, so does anyone have any ideas? Is it possible to slide/adjust the blade in the wiper arm so that it is 1cm or so further away and hopefuly solves the issue?

Cheers,

The dealer had a look at it this morning and concluded that there was something on the windscreen (adhesive or something) that was making the wiper stick just before the bottom and then releasing causing it to flick and contact the plastic at the bottom of the windscreen.

They have cleaned it all up and I will see how it goes.
