EK 96-00 Torque setting for wiper arms (front)

[EK1.6LCIV]

Hey all just as stated above, looking for the right setting to set them to as they've been replaced, (new on left and old oem on right)

any help is greatly appreciated

its 14nm.
which is about finger tight , then about 3/4 of a turn with a socket or spanner.

remember to pull the wiper UP as you tighten the 14mm nut , to make sure the wiper arm is secure and flat.

is flat, and finger tight, thanks for your help mate

you will know straight away if they are too loose - drop the bonnet and give the wipers a go.
If they are loose they will wipe one way then partially catch and end up slightly up the windshield.correct with loosening then properly tightening
