Clif Posted April 21, 2021 Share Posted April 21, 2021 Hi All, I need some Honda expert advice. I recently bought a Honda CRV EX (2016). When the wipers are on the wiper motor makes a relatively high pitch whirring/whining sound. It is very obvious. When I freeway you don't notice it but around the local roads if I do not have the radio on it is very noticeable and annoying. I sat in two friends CRVs and they do not have the noise, only the wiper blades on windscreen. This is not that. I took back to the dealer and they took it in to replace the wiper motor (genuine). I got it back and they said it made no difference and the sound is still there. They said that it seems to be a normal thing with these Honda CRV wiper motors. I am a bit taken aback because for a relatively luxury car this seem like an odd thing that noone would complain about to Honda! Does anyone else have such a sound when their wipers are on? That is, the whining/whirring of the wiper motor. Thanks in advance for any advice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trevor Posted April 22, 2021 Share Posted April 22, 2021 I wonder if it is the linkage rubbing against something metallic (bulkhead, etc)? Worth checking by running the wipers and listening under the bonnet for where the noise is coming from Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
