Windscreen wiper noise above 80 KPH (48MPH)

Hi folks,

I have been having problems recently with squeeking off side wiper blade. The LR dealer changed the blade for a different type and while this has improved at low speed, unfortunately above 80 KPH the squeeking becomes annoying.
Any ideas will be greatly appreciated.

rainx.com Rain-X Original Glass Treatment dramatically improves wet weather driving visibility.  Simply apply the treatment to exterior glass and watch the raindrops fly off your windshield while driving.  Rain-X helps improve visibility by repelling rain, sleet and snow.
Improve all-weather visibility, safety and driving comfort
Helps easily remove frost, ice, salt, mud and bugs
Apply to exterior glass
In tests conducted by a major university, better visibility improved driving response time up to a full second or more.  At highway speeds, that’s almost four car lengths of extra stopping distance!

Noisy LR wipers are a long standing, widely known problem Wink

The only solution many have found is to change to these:
