clicking intermittent wipers

[Serious]

Anyone else have the problem of a clicking sound during intermittent wiper operation? It sounds like the relay clicking but is extremely loud, I could hear it over music and freeway road & wind noise.

I'm sure I would've noticed such an annoying noise before.

Is this a common issue? Any easy fixes?... otherwise it will be going back to the dealer.

I hear this too. I've only had the car for 7 months, but have noticed this sound all along. It doesn't seem to have gotten worse and wiper performance is fine.

Same here. Definitely sounds like it's just a relay and it's normal. 4 years and 63k miles.

I don't think it's an issue, so there's probably not any kind of fix from the dealer. I'm almost sure they'll just tell you it's fine without even looking at it.

Best bet would be to find where it's at and insulate it so the noise isn't as loud.

surprisingly the sound has gone or at least is quiet enough not to notice now... really weird how loud that relay was, and is now back to being quiet again. quite peculiar.
