Wifey was using the RR last night, she says the wipers will only go half way across the screen, motor is still working, any ideas guys please.
Cheers

Have you had a screen replaced recently or battery changed? 2x TDV6. SE and HSE. Both returned to sender with issues👀
TDV8 Sport HSE...... Gone. Loved it but it didn't love me!!
Now rolling in MY10 Fullfat TDV8 Vogue. Slammed it to go round corners🙈
Cruising daily #56 mph in a Volvo V8. 😱
Lots of other toys in the cupboard...😜

It has been known for the wiper arm to driving spindle connection to work loose - it happened to the O/S arm on my TDV8. Easy to check - make sure the wipers are in the 'park' position and pop the bonnet so you can access the bottom of the wiper arms, prise out the circular sealing grommet and check tightness of the nyloc nut underneath.

If no problem there and the motor is running fine then suggests the linkage is at fault - quite easy to access by removing the scuttle trim panel. 2008 MY Java Black TDV8 HSE

nothing has been changed, I can hear the motor going, and if I help the wipers move they do so with very little effort, but as soon as I let go of them they stop !

Perhaps a linkage problem then:

£55 on ebay complete with motor?

Cheers guys, I will get it looked at before buying bits I might not need, just got to find some one local as I cant drive for a month due to heart attack on sunday, so need to find some where close that wifey can find.

Where about are Bob. I'm close to Turriff and there's a couple of places that would be able to help rather than a LR dealership.

Thanks any way mate, but I live in Norwich, Englandshire.
Cheers any way
Bob

Closer than Angola though...

Blimey, I knew you had the odd issue with the RRS but a heart attack? Hope you get better soon Piggo, then back to Africa! Maybe buy something more reliable  Gone - 2008 Stornoway Grey RRS 2.7 TDV6
Gone - 2009 Buckingham Blue RRS 2.7 TDV6
Gone - 2010 Alaska White RRS 5.0 V8 Aspirated
Gone - 2017 Chawton White RRS 5.0 V8 Supercharged
Current - 2010 Java Black RRS 5.0 V8 Aspirated
Current- 2024 RRS P400 SE Dynamic

All sorted thanks guys, the drive had slipped on the motor shaft, easy fix, Glad I did not order a new motor at 160 quid.

Excellent result  2008 MY Java Black TDV8 HSE
