2009 Muranos are easier than the earlier models (at least what I've heard) but still a bit of a pain in the a**. Here is the easiest way:
1. Remove the black plastic piece that covers the wiper arm bolt. This plastic piece is right at the right angle where the wiper arm meets the motor shaft. This can be popped off just using your hand.
2. Once the plastic piece is removed, you can see a single #9 bolt that is holding the wiper arm onto the shaft. Remove it.
3. The arm will be FIRMLY in place. Once the bolt is removed the wiper arm will most likely still be stuck. You will need to firmly jiggle the arm for it to pop off. Please be careful not to apply too much force because the arm will break.
4. Once the arm has been removed you can turn the wiper to a 90 degree angle to the arm and it will pop off.
5. Replace the wiper blade with a new one. Note even though a 14" replacement looks larger it will still fit on the window. The new one will pop into place.
6. Replace the wiper arm onto the shaft and reinstall the bolt. Don't torque it down too much yet.
7. Once the arm is back on and the bolt is snug, go turn the wiper on and make sure that it is vertically in the right position. It should end up even on the window on both sides of the motion arc. If it is not, unscrew the bolt and move it a little.
8. Once it is in the right place, tighten the bolt down firmly, replace the black plastic piece, and ur good to go.
That's it!
