Has anyone else noticed a wiper judder?

Specifically the passenger side wiper judders and stutters at the top of its sweep, just as it gets vertical.

I considered it was to do with the level of friction but it occurs regardless of how much water is on the screen. I’ve given The glass a clean too but it still occurs, wonder if it’s a fault rather than a friction issue.

Mine has that too on the drive side (left hand drive), i'm not sure about the passenger side, it doesnt really bother me , i just figured they tried to save some money/weight on the wipers :lol:

Old post, but I'll reply anyway.

My car had the same thing, but it has lessened a lot since I bought the car in July 2020. I do not often drive in the rain intentionally, so I've only used the wipers maybe 6 times.

I recently took a clay bar to the windscreen which has made the wipers glide smoothly across the windscreen and reduce noise considerably.

Your issue may be different but here is my post.
