New Rear Windshield Wiper Question - Click HERE for Original Thread

So I have a 2001 X, and when I use the wiper fluid to clean the rear window, the fluid itself just runs out like a small river. I would expect the rear nozzle to mist the fluid out similar to the front nozzles. I end up using many time more fluid than I should as I try to time the squirt as the blade swings back and forth to clean the window.

Does anyone else have a similar problem? Before I go to the dealer to have it worked on I wanted to make sure this isn't the way that the Acura engineers designed it. I hope not.

Thats how Acura does it! I have never seen it done any other way... then again I have only owned 2 cars with a rear wiper (both Integras). Hope that clears it up!

That's normal design for Acura - you get to dry wipe half the window before it hits the stream.............

A Honda CRV we previously owned sprayed and did a much better job.

Yup, that's it. Another Acura "feature" and a common complaint by board members. I try not to get too distracted when watching the washer dribble and the rear wiper while driving.
