They work better than any blade I've ever used before, hands down.
Leading evidence: 'Use before, hands down' (no explicit attributable resolution; this is a reported action or suggestion). Across 1 matching discussions, The most frequently discussed action is 'Clean dry glass and lasts more than a month' (1 discussions). For that action, 0 discussions report a resolution and 0 report an unsuccessful attempt. No action has an explicit, attributable resolution report under the current rules. These are forum reports and suggestions, not a confirmed diagnosis.

I use RAIN-X at the track on wet days, and I don't need to use the wipers at high speeds.

And, one problem with Rain-X is that when wipers are used, they seem to smear the glass a little bit.
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

hi all...
i recently reallised that the speeds of the wiper blades of the front windscreen of our 996 C2 are only 3....
at my 964 they were 4!!!! the 4rth one was extremelly quick so that you could drive with 120+ mph in the rain (depending on the condition of the tarmac)
in our 996 there is no 4rth scale...and of course it is impossible, (even if the tarmac is perfect ) to drive over 100 mph and normal rain....
any suggestions?
i believe there are only 3 modes in the 9x6 generation
i believe its:
---push the stalk up slightly and you get one single swipe
---pull stalk down one notch and you get intermittent mode, determinned by the little **** opposite the cigertte lighter
---push stalk up once for normal
---stalk up twice for fastest mode.
I swear by RAIN-X. It is a surfactant that works especially well at high speeds or heavy rain - no wipers required. It is applied on clean dry glass and lasts more than a month. With less use of my wipers, the glass clarity is preserved. RAIN-X makes the water bead up and roll off. Related products are used on aircraft glass. RAIN-X glass does however need wipers at low speeds and mist. Visibility in a torrent or speeds above 75mph (120km/h) is fabulous.
emillios,
i understand what u say, that 996 efficiency is better than 964...but i found the 964's fourth scale more efficient than thw 996's 3rd at 120 mph....
Apply rainx to a dry windshield and let it dry on. Also, use Bosch Micro Edge Excel blades. They work better than any blade I've ever used before, hands down.
I've noticed the same problem. They definitely tend to skip. And, one problem with Rain-X is that when wipers are used, they seem to smear the glass a little bit. It clears, but I can't stand that shadow smear while I am driving, instead being left to just keeping the wipers off and letting Rain-X do its thing.
I will look into this thread's post recommendation to try Bosch's wipers. The stock wipers are not so great. Of course, it might be worth trying this Rejex surfectant also. I had not heard of the product before....
