I think your customers are lucky to have someone who actually researches the best way to do the job.
A couple from my church had this problem with their wipers, they were quoted £500 from a garage to fix it. Just did it at my house with the £20 eBay kit with help from your video. Hugely grateful (and so are they). Thanks!
Awesome! Glad I could help
Hi, please share the link for eBey kit.
Thank you so much! With your help my dad and I have saved lots of time, hassle and money! Plus we got some good bonding time! This was a great video 😊👍
Extremely useful in a day like today when the wipers decided to stop working because the amount of snow in the windscreen.
Thanks a lot.
Thanks Rob, very helpful. Mine has just popped off and stopped, but motor still running. Very informative video, and very well explained with plenty of patience. Good luck..
Thank you so much - I followed exactly what you demonstrated on your video and successfully replaced the push rods. Saving myself a fortune.
Invaluable video my friend, thank you. I've got a micra K12 and the wipers were working, but were super smeary and vibrating, even with new wipers. Also, on full speed the wipers were hitting the scuttle panel. Followed your video and fitted the exact same linkage rods from Wipex, and all sorted now. The old ones had so much play in them. Thanks again.
i recently done this job too drill hole straight threw the ball and top of connector road big split pin works a treat saving customer money good videos keep up the work
Respect to you mate; love all your videos.
Superb video. Fixed my micra wipers. Nice and easy instructions.
Very concise vid, thanks. Repair done in under 30 mins, parts from supplier you suggested.
Can't thank you enough
Thanks Rich!
Top notch video thx. Exact same thing happened to my mrs car an your video has helped us massively
Really helpful. Great tips, great demo. Thanks v much
Thank you for the video. Awesome job. I really hope that this is the issue I have with my vipers.
Just saved me a whole lot of time and money. Cheers!
Thanks for the video. Saved my bacon Rob. 2 arms from ebay and all done thanks to your video. 🙏
Nicely done, you did a much better job than I would have done, and it will last far longer.
Got to love a wiper linkage! Sold a fair few over the years also.
Decent video my friend. Nice to see replacement parts were near.
Thanks, yes lucky customer 👍
Thank you very much sharing this video I had sam wipers problem with my micra I had fix my problem you explained very well in details very professional thank you. I fixed my car 🚗 thanks again
Great video's Rob. Merry Christmas & New year
Merry Christmas mate 🎄

Brilliant fix ! Gotta keep them on the road somehow. Merry Christmas to you and the family brother . And looking forward to the next video as always
Thanks Keith. Merry Christmas 🎄 Bruv!!!!
Good fix Rob !! Merry Christmas !
Merry Christmas Norm
Thank you
It’s helped so much👍🏻
Thanks for that chap. Great tutorial.
Another great job you're very good mechanic Merry Christmas to you and your family
Thank you Merry Christmas 🎄
Got this same job to do this week, just waiting for the linkages to arrive. Funny thing, I had a 1983 Ford Sierra years ago that used the same idea of those plastic cups (a lot easier to get at though). Used to pop off regularly, usually driving up the motorway on a wet day. I bodged it a few times jamming it with a mars bar wrapper. No eBay back then and the breakers wouldn't sell me the linkage, only the whole assembly. In the end I think I deformed the loose end with a heat gun and flipped the linkage so the cups were on different balls and it never came off again. Seems strange they still use parts like this that are clearly made to fail.
Excellent video - thank you - it enabled me to do the fix efficiently and cheaply. Special puller tool also available for about a tenner if you don’t need to have a high quality one to use over and over. Cheers much appreciated
6 to 8 weeks on a part sure is a long time Rob. That aftermarket linkage look just as good or even better than the OEM. And I'm sure it was a lot cheaper which should really make the customer happy. Great workmanship as always! 😀👍
I know Terry. 6-8 weeks is not acceptable these days. Cheers mate Merry Christmas 🎄
Nissan are terrible when it comes to spares. Had the same sort of wait time for a rear foglight switch a couple of years ago. On top of that the garage had to half dismantle the dashboard as, although the switch was designed to pop in from the front, the wires weren't long enough to disconnect the old one without having a hand behind the dashboard.
One Auto, where did you the linkage arm from in the end please?
Top video, great job 👍
Nice job getting the wipers sorted Rob. Geeez, now you got me talking like a foreigner. lol
I’ll av you talking proper English in no time me ol sunshine
thanks for the great video. I believe I have the same issue with my Micra K12, but in my case is my fault since I was lazy to clean the snow from the windscreen... stupid me!
Really useful -top man - thank you -
Another great video. Merry Christmas :-)
Merry Christmas Jan
Perfect! Just the job, cheers man :)
Geez, that would have been an unacceptable wait in your weather. You did the customer a great favor doing some research on finding a kit. Nice one Rob.
I’m still in shock now Wyatt. Crazy amount of time. Cheers mate Merry Christmas again 😉
Nice video rob, another cheap fix with those linkages drill a hole in the center of the ball and socket regrease it pop it back on, then put a small washer at either side of it and then split pin. Make sure to cut off excess of the split pin because it will catch on the linkage or wiper motor.
Springer spaniel Yes that’s what I’d have done if I had to wait 6-8 weeks
Thank you so much for this. Spot on.
You’re welcome
Great video, thanks.
Nice fix Rob! I was surprised you didn't use the Dorman nylons HAHA oops fell out of my chair laughing then you could do it again in a month or maybe the same day. Merry Christmas Rob!
Oh Bob you used the ‘D’ word again 😂
Merry christmas rob😎
Radu Florian Merry Christmas 🎄
Hi Rob, fantastic video, thanks Rob, just saved me a packet, enjoyed doing it and gets my Dad off my back :-)
Could you tell me the name of the company that sells this kit?
Great video 👍🏾
Great vid Mate 👍
Vdubs 60 Cheers Jamie
Hi Rob another fine job done.Seems like main stealers only like selling expensive parts if its a common fault. I use main dealers for some parts.Went to do an oil change on my 08 vectra 1.8 with only 70,000 on clock,1st time i done it it was like £40 with Vat all the parts.Then went to do 2nd oil change same parts and they wanted £80 Day light robbery.Went after market then.See the person fitted the windscreen liked slapping the black primer on as it run down the bulkhead.Happy xmas to you and your family.Be good if you and leon done a video fixing a car together maybe you can teach him a few things lol :-)
My local Vauxhall recently has introduced service packs with all the filters for a decent price. Merry Christmas 🎄
Nice job done. I allways use a silicone or teflon based grease no problems anymore.
Willem Streutgers Thanks Merry Christmas 🎄
thanks, very useful even though I have a Qashqai it's basically the same procedure.
A friend of mine has a Qashqai. She's ordered the parts from Wipex and I'm going to fit them with her, I hope. I'm no mechanic so hoping it will be OK and wipers not seized on. Was yours pretty straightforward, nothing that different from this video of the Micra? Any tips much appreciated.
Thank you!!! Sorted ❤!!!
I had exactly the same issue with my K12, new wiper linkage from eBay and sorted 💪🏼

Hi I can’t seem to find it, can you drop me link please?
Karina Egorov rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.co.uk%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F201955269088
Thank you very much...the entire video was helpful!!
Drill hole and bent nail lasted a year, but this got the job done properly.
Do you have a favourite charity I can donate a tenna to?
xxxarlow Thank you very much. I donate monthly to the Warwickshire and Northamptonshire Air Ambulance 🚁 theairambulanceservice.org.uk
@@OneAuto DONE!! Honestly thanks again. :) Have a good day.
Same happened to me 10 or so years ago when I had a BMW E34 525tds.
Went to the main dealer, got a silly quote for a full linkage.
However the parts guy knew his stuff and said he was sure just the primary linkage was available separately.
Strangely enough it was listed for the petrol models but not the diesels.
That was a similar price difference I think, £30 Vs £250+
Simon Parkinson Yes always good to check other avenues
Great job . the price from Nissan is OTT . Have a nice xmas and a good 2018
125 SM Cheers buddy, Merry Christmas mate
The K12 micro was bonkers Nissan went wrong with this model lol. Merry xmas to you and your family.
Zed Man Very true, K10 and K11 for the win. Merry Christmas to you and yours!
Thanks!
6-8 weeks and heaps of money? Sounds pretty normal for parts over here 😂 Good job Rob
I know crazy amount of time to wait! Maybe they should sell on Amazon! Merry Christmas mate 🎄
Tnx mate
Heh, a 2010 Nissan still suffering from the same cup wear problem as my 1997 N15 Almera did. I've done a couple of Almera linkages and a Primera P11. The Primera didn't have worn cups but the spindles were quite badly corroded and seized.
Yep you’d have thought they would have improved it by now
Pretty bad that a 2010 model wiper linkage failed, it should be a lifetime part! and a shocking wait time for the new part from Nissan. Well done with the ebay fix, good thinking!
I’m still in shock now! eBay FTW
Had same part fail on 2005 chevy cavalier , GM wanted $200.00 . Found replacment plastic clips from Eric O'S favorite parts maker .DORMAN ! Windshield wiper arm all over the place , loose fit !
Jeff Armer Haha well I guess that can happen if you take the Dorman gamble 😀
I love your channel because you are presenting a whole range of auto repair(different kind of repairs). Can i have your opinion on this matter. Kia Magentis 2008 ABS+EBD Automatic FWD. Today i stopped at red light.When i released the brake to continue the car didn't move and i needed to press hard on acceleration in order to move it(very slow) to side of the road. In "Neutral" and parking brake DEactivated i lifted every wheel of the car and all of them were hard locked.The brake pedal was jelly soft .NO ABS light, no brake fluid loss.I continued pressing the the brake pedal tens of times to the floor and suddenly everything is back to normal. (pedal got stiffer like before) I've driven 25km since then and no problems.What could it be? :)
Possible brake master cylinder. You better get it checked out
Hi Rob great video mate i`m having trouble getting my wiper arms off on my mondeo ive brought a puller and still wont budge and yes ive took the nuts off lol any ideas mate to sort it out cheers
Try putting as much pressure on with the puller then apply some small taps with a hammer/drift near the spindle. The combo of pressure and vibration often breaks it free.
One Auto, cheers Rob ill give it a try merry Christmas to you and your family
A long wait at the dealer to get it done - I wonder if the dealer would have shopped on ebay too. LOL Seems parts availability is a consideration when choosing a car to buy . Cheers
I really don’t know Steve, probably all they could have done if they valued the customer. I did think a business trip to Amsterdam was in order at one point 🤔 💃🤪
I need these socket bush where can i find this b.coz it looses and when on the wiper not working there?
Thanks
Legend
What's all that black stuff running down from the bottom of the windscreen? Bodged replacement windscreen job?
Yes it looks like it
My micra k12 has wipers that work constantly whilst turned off. Any ideas as to what the problem could be. Tried replacing motor, but problem still there.
Regards Andy.
Hi again, job done fab . But I broke the “scribbit type” fixings you mention at about 4 minutes in. Do you know what they’re called and where I could source them? Thanks again.
Good stuff. Search ‘Scrivet’ on Amazon or just go to Nissan dealer
@@OneAuto many thanks 😊
Nice one Rob , nissan seem least than helpful in this case , i would guess thats a common failure .
I did wonder how slow the boat from Amsterdam actually was 😆
Is this still available in the 😢😢
Super.
What clap did you use to put the new arms on ?
Just plumbers pipe grips
How can remove washer jet micra k12.. please video
Should of watched this first . Just got an aftermarket kit as need to fix ASAP 😞 still half the price of Nissan stuff 😎
Seems like a very "euro" tactic by Nissan if you ask me, £250 for a new linkage? I want some of what they're smoking. I wouldn't spend that on a Honda part let alone a Renault part with a Nissan label on. The new Nissan's don't hold a candle to the old ones.
Top repair Rob. 👍
Well you said it Joe.... in Amsterdam you know what they are smoking 😂
£348 they want off me for this problem so looking else where to take my car
Your using grips speaking of wings, spanners.... Do you have an English translation of these terms :)
We have slip joint pliers, fenders and wrenches ( I looked up the English translation thank goodness for Google and Eric O.)
Great vid, thanks much
Living Larger 😂 yes Wings, Boots, Bonnets, spanner’s, grips, petrol. To name a few that got lost traveling over the pond. Merry Christmas 🎄
Could this have been caused by the recent snow?
No these stopped working when the customer was driving in the rain. Just wear and tear in the plastic socket on this one
Hello mate, what's the website that you have used to order this ?
Muhammad Zulqarnain was from eBay
Yay!!!! :)
I also prefer the smaller cup size😉😉😉
It's that time of the year... broken wiper links or stripped motor gears (plastic) from using wipers while they are frozen to the windscreen.
Yes mate, Wipers and Blower Motors season for sure
My micra front wipers comes on by themselves for about 20 sec and then off for a while whether the switch on or off or on full speed. Couldn’t find solution. Can anyone help please?
Can you please put up the link for the kit please can’t find the company on EBay?
wipex.co.uk
Thanks
What make gloves do you use.
They are called Black Rhino nitrile gloves
One Auto, Thank you and merry christmas
Sir my wiper not stopping ...do u know whrere is the problem
No sir
Frost damage?
I thought that originally but the customer was driving in the rain when they stopped. Just crappy materials used by Nissan I guess
Good old Nissan and their shit wipers gotta love them done loads Nissan Qashqai even worse lots of problems
I know this problem
Thank you
The whole mechanism I bought for £28 from eBay. Thank you for such an amazing video, which really helped me to find out the problem and resolve it.
It is 2003-2010
6-8 weeks.... they must be using snail mail express 😂
I’m still shocked now 😂
I think it's "order from the mill". So, firths they need to make them(not just one) and then ship them to a warehouses + it's shipping to UK ;)
Would have thought the parts came from Sunderland and not Amsterdam.
Who knows how they operate their after sales parts operation. I’ve needed a blower for a qashqai before and been told it comes from Amsterdam. Thing is.. that’s a really slow boat to take 6-8 weeks!
I know whats wrong! the wipers, pedals and steering wheels on the wrong side :)) I've had to replace many of them junk bushing on all types of cars.
Great video. Hoping to get a friend's Qashqai wipers fixed with these Wipex items. I'm getting some penetrating oil and hoping the wiper arms come off easily. If I have to get a puller like you did I will but have seen this trick on TH-cam using a hammer for tapping and screwdriver for leverage that might work. Be interested to know what you think of it:
th-cam.com/video/ty1IszPwnnM/w-d-xo.html
I don't have any brake cleaning fluid for cleaning gunk off. Will white spirit or WD40 do a decent job? Much appreciate you posting this.
Sir Prancelot Thanks for your comment. I would use a tool to remove the arms. Certainly wouldn’t hit the spindles with a hammer.
scrap it :-)
