I had the problem where you would close the drivers door and it would bounce off the catch. The door wouldn't actually open while driving, as it is a double catch, but you couldn't be driving with it like that. It got so bad, you had to close it super gently from the inside, and caress it closed...
Warren, another quick question... did you have to get a different knob, that turns further? I recall seeing someone bodged a standard one, as the contacts are actually in place, but covered or something. Just wondering what option you went for.
Actually is it normal on an S3 that the spray follows the wiper? I've been looking at it, and it might be like that by design, but needs to be adjusted so it doesn't spray down onto the bootdoor - just don't know how it could actually be adjusted. The A3 as I said before just sprays up vertical...
My s3 rear wiper isn't great. The spray follows the arm, but sprays down the door and its just out of whack. I have an a3 donor car, that the spray stays vertical up the centre of the window. I was going to try and swap them over, but couldn't get the blade off the donor car... not many...
Syncro, can you explain what the difference is regarding LHD & RHD in this regard. I would have thought the connectors on each side are the same - no. Where would the LHD/RHD difference kick in?
Maybe I am missing something, but I just seen these on ebay.

Why are you stripping it out? Is it broke... I'll be on the hunt to get one for mine, as it had one fitted as standard, but it broke and was replaced by a basic mirror.
