Motorist shares trick to stop annoying wiper blades problem and it takes seconds

A savvy driver has shared a quick and easy guide to changing your car's wiper blades, as well as a little-known trick to stop them from squeaking once you've installed them

As the UK gears up for a season of wet, cold, and windy days, it becomes increasingly crucial to prepare our vehicles for the challenging conditions ahead. Poor weather can lead to slightly impaired visibility, making driving more difficult, and ensuring your car, especially the wiper blades, is in excellent condition is essential.

Neglected wiper blades that fail to provide a clear view of the road could result in three penalty points on your licence. Worse still, you could be hauled off to court, facing a possible driving ban alongside a substantial fine of £1,000 or even £2,500 for larger vehicles.

A TikTok user has taken the initiative to post a handy guide on replacing wiper blades. User @MyMotorWorld, with 3,000 followers, delves into the process: "Now you won't believe how simple these are to change, but why would you change it in the first place? "

He goes on to explain the tell-tale signs of wiper blade wear: "Well if you're out and it's raining or you're doing a wash, wipe and see a line coming across your windscreen, the blade could be damaged. And it's so simple to change."

To assist drivers in finding the right replacement, he advised: " For those unsure about which wipers to purchase, he offers a tip for finding the appropriate replacement: "All you need to do is type your registration number at MyMotorWorld and get the correct blade for your car."

"Inside you going to have all these fitments, so it will definitely fit. Now take the blade out of the box, lift the arm off. The old blade slides out, slide the new blade in."

"It's really simple, takes seconds to do. Once a new blade is in, just remove the carrier and that's it. All done, you've now got a clean wash, you can see where you're going, nice, safe and simple.", reports the Mirror.
