poor wiper jets ?
« on: December 18, 2011, 11:44:23 PM »
my wiper jets are pretty rubbish any thing above 40mph and they hit the wiper arms and even at stand still only really cover the lower half of the screen

they seem powerfull enough just not in the right place

and as far as i can see arn't adjustable

any ideas ?

If they are anything like the 500's they can be aimed higher or lower but that's about it

With a pin or something similar adjust them yourself just be careful not to break them...

If they are like the 500 you need a little screw driver adjust by turning tiny little bit be careful very careful

Buy another jet and convert the middle blank one into a washer that should fix the problem. I was going to do this to mine.

FFS, what is wrong with you people?  Can't you even adjust your wiper jets?  Don't be careful, just take a pin to adjust, and if that breaks anything, take it back to the dealer with a massive complaint.  FFS.

Lol I challenge you to do mine then ;)

I'm a qualified race technician and a damper technician you'd think I would be capable of adjusting the jets ...... If they were adjustable

Even the dealer couldnt do it .

I don't think you can adjust them on S2 puntos... might be possible on the older S1's...

mine are 100% not adjustable... (S2)

No, the jets on the S1 are not adjustable either.
