mono wiper on my 1999 c230k stopped sweeping halfway across screen....
I found platic gear in the windscreen wiper motor is stripped ... is this replaceable/repairable or need new motor??
Is this common problem?
If new motor - guess I have to buy from dealer? as second hand gear could be on its way out? but I guess its gonna be expensive?
Very common problem.
Try Rusty, - buymbparts.
$300ish
thanks
is the plastic gear non replaceable ... I understood the point of having then is that they would fail first saving the rest of the motor ... but kind of pointless if u have to buy all of the motor anyway!
thanks look good - unfortunately i'm based in the UK thx
In that case Eurocarparts, German and Swedish or kms if you're in Birmingham.
