Audi A3 + S3 - 98 1.8 Slow wipers - mikeyb

First issue with the Audi (but not to bad after 3 trouble free months)

The windscreen wipers appear to have slowed down. Were fine a few weeks back, but normal speed is quite slow, and "fast" setting is probably about where normal speed should be.

Any obvious reasons I should look at or is it likely to be the motor?

Very likely to be the wiper linkage seizing up.Very common on most Vag models.
