Even with the fixed fastest speed the wipers seem noticeably slower than every other car I've had apart from an old 1960s car. In heavy rain the screen just isn't cleared quickly enough compared to every other car I've had. Auto seems to go to the fastest speed but that fastest speed isn't fast enough.
What solutions are there?
New tesla wiper motors and linkage?
Different wiper motor brand with the same linkage?
Fiddling with the linkage so that it moves more freely on the assumption it's got gummed up over the years and that's why it's so slow?
Is there an updated version of the wiper mechanism in later cars that could be used instead?
My feeling is the wiper system is about 1/3 to 1/2 too slow on the top speed which is significant.
I haven't used RainX as that usually needs too much maintenance. Wipers need to work adequately and I'd expect all modern cars to get such a basic thing as wiper speed ok.
Is there a calibration menu or some way of cheating to force the top speed to be a bit faster?
