Tagged this thread. The factory Kumhos on my Elantra only have 25k miles but are getting noisy.

I was in the DC area at the time with plenty of below freezing days.

I used it in an old car once. I remember it being pricey and no better than regular PSF.

Wow, a lot of great suggestions ITT. Will go outside some point this weekend and report back on the results. Thanks, as always, fellas!

Yup, I did clean the blades. We were visiting friends in the city and their building had offsite parking near a construction site. Whatever gunk was flying around in the air that week must've coated the glass.

Hey guys, I've got this oily film on my windshield that's really apparent when running the wipers in the rain. I cleaned the glass with Stoner's glass cleaner and while this helped considerably, there's still some haze left. I'm thinking about trying an alcohol wipe down next to hopefully cut...

I'm a fan of hybrid blades, with the Denso Designer and Trico TeflonShield being my favorites. All my cars are parked outside and these blades easily last a year in our four-season climate, whereas others crap out in less than six months

Check the charge. The pass. side can blow colder when the charge is low since the evaporator is on that side.

I like the Hyatt chain (Place, House, Regency) myself.

Another Update: I installed the new fill valve from Kohler and all is well again. Only difference is the the factory one had a yellow top while this one is red. I It also came with different colored flow restrictors. The factory one was black so that's the one I used. On a different note...

Always.

Like you said, could be el cheapo wipers put on at selling time but could also be embedded junk on the glass from the car sitting on the lot. My cars are all parked outside. If I don't clay & polish the windshield every 6 months to get the junk off, the wipers rarely last a year before...

Get the made in Taiwan Beck/Arnley.

This is why I ask questions here. You guys have knowledge about all sorts of stuff :) Thank you!

Another vote for leave it alone.
