Silly question maybe

[JackDaniels]

Is it just me or do the wipers on the 182's seem a bit underpowered? By that I mean in heavy rain they just cant keep up even at full speed.
On my old Pug 306 the highest speed setting would make the car rock slighty when it was still and had no problems keeping up even in the worst rain, anyone else noticed this compared to other cars or is this a really stupid comment?
I only noticed driving around last night in really shitty weather and the already bad visibilty was made a bit worse due to the wipers not clearing the screen fast enough. I have tried all the settings on the stalk but top speed just does not cut it.

Can't say i've ever had a problem with the wiper speed tbh . Get some rainex on your windscreen

if u have them on full speed when staionary they dont seem that fast, As your speed increases so will your wiper speed.
