My wiper mechanism is loose, but I'm not sure which part I need to buy to fix it. If you take a look at the image below, the brown cup connects onto a nipple, which is on a short metal piece. It is this nipple which is loose where it attaches to the metal bar, not the fitment between cup and nipple, nor any other part of the wiper mechanism.

What do I need to replace to get a tighter nipple here? Can I just get the short metal bit?

Thanks.



I see this:

and these

Which don't look like they'd help.

Had a similar problem a couple of years ago, when wipers had jammed up on screen.
Got it welded very easily, multipart wanted to sell the whole linkage complete, can't remember how much, but loads-a-money.

Were Matador able to help? I've broken one of the plastic cups on the end. I see that TVR Parts sell them but wondered if Matador were any cheaper.

I had the loose joint welded up which solved the problem. I didn't contact Matador in the end. TVR power sell the plastic cup bits.
