Had the first taste of rain with my D4 and the shudder from the wipers is driving me crazy.
Seems only one way, that is when they return to the lower position and worst on slow speed.
Particurlary bad with heavy rain. Not so bad as window is dryer.
Has any one experienced or resolved this problem?

The LR ones are better than they used to be but a bit of Rain-Ex works wonders for me. Try that first if it doesn't solve it, go for the after market ones, they are much quieter than the LR ones. “There are only three sports: bullfighting, motor racing, and mountaineering; all the rest are merely gamesâ€
