Has anyone had this problem.

My wipers make an incredibly high pitched noise during the upswing. I thought it was bad blades so I replaced them with new ones and I still have the problem.

Minor problem but really annoying

I agree, my wipers REALLY suck. About half of the windshield only gets cleaned, but i guess i could buy double bladed wipers and put those on.

Bandit, you shouldn't drive a 240... you should drive a big rid, 10-4.

I installed silicone wipers. Still have the prob. I am going to try and run them with the wipers not touching the window. This may help determine if it's a wiper issue or a mechanical noise.
