Default A4 wipers parking in middle of windshield
My 2006 A4 wipers are parking right in the middle of the windshield. When I use the wipers they work fine just don't park.

Spoke to an Audi Dealership today and the said it might be the linkage, as the motor is still working. Anybody have any ideas/suggestions.

Thanks

There's is something called a Wiper Transmission. It's the part that connects the motor to the wiper arms. I had a similar problem once and within a few days my wipers totally seized. And it was raining like crazy.... $400 to fix.

Find out the part number and let me know, I can check how much it is here as I usually get things a lot cheaper and I can ship it out to you.
